Continuous radar tracking illustrates the development of multi-destination routes in bumblebees

This project contains archived data and materials supporting the publication: Woodgate JL, Makinson JC, Lim KS, Reynolds AM, Chittka L. Continuous Radar Tracking Illustrates the Development of Multi-destination Routes of Bumblebees. Scientific reports. 2017 Dec 11;7(1):17323. doi:10.1038/s41598-017-17553-1 This work was supported by European Research Council Advanced Grant no. 339347: RadarSpacePollinator and by EPSRC Program Grant no. EP/P006094/1: Brains on Board. Material is organised in the following sections: 'Published paper' contains pdf copies of the published manuscript and supplementary material and copies of all published figures. 'Radar tracks, raw data' contains text files with the raw radar track data for 201 recorded foraging flights reported in the manuscript. 'Variables extracted from radar tracks' contains all variables derived from the flight tracks that were used in the analysis. A link is included to an OSF archive containing further data including processed track files converted into geo-centric coordinates; graphical representations of every recorded flight track and video files showing the development of each bee's foraging routes; and photographs of bees and equipment used in the course of this study.
