Abstract
The aim of the OzTrack project is to provide common e-Science infrastructure to support the management, pre-processing, analysis and visualization of animal tracking data generated by researchers who are using telemetry devices to study animal behavior and ecology in Australia. This paper describes the technical challenges and design decisions associated with the development of the OzTrack system. It also describes the pre-processing, analysis and visualization services that we have developed to help researchers understand how their study species move across space and time. Finally this paper outlines the systems' current limitations and preliminary results and feedback from its evaluation to date.
