This repository contains the functionality to map/transform data from INBO's colour-ring database "meeuwen" to cr-birding.org, a platform hosted by SOVON. The "meeuwen" database (access restricted) contains volunteer submitted observations of colour-ringed or wing-tagged birds (mostly large gulls). These data are an important low-tech source of information to derive the life history of these individual birds and go back since 1986. By migration to cr-birding.org, volunteers will be able to submit observations online, rather than by email, making it more efficient to capture and manage data.

Patch after final export is not included in webpage, but is still rendered as html, download patch.html from ./docs folder.
