EDIT: I opened a new issue (it's the same) but with the right "tag"- I couldn't edit it on iPad GitHub 🙄

Still learning to use GitHub like its intended

Hey,

I dug up some stuff from BirdNET It is really important that the user of BirdNET-Go can set the locationFilterThreshold for themselves!

See line 62 BirdNET-Analyzer; config.py

I think you defined it in Line 33 rangefilter.go

If the threshold is fixed (like it is right now) I can't detect certain species that are definitely present on my location.

On BirdNET-Pi (Nachtzuster Fork- but its basically the same) it looks like this: image The link from the photo here

There is also a small species list tester- so i know where i set my threshold For the extreme i set it to 0.95 - see Picture below image And for my location I have it set to 0.0018 so i can detect most owls in my region. As you can see the list gets MUCH longer image

This is not needed for the person that just wants to know their birds in the garden. But for people that are interested in ornithology and Enthusiasts (like me) it is Really important!

Otherwise a lot of birds don't get detected even tho they are present, calling and are in the birdnet library.
