SEO / BirdLife thanks the Seabird Working Group (GTAM) for the implementation of this system for monitoring the mortality of birds on the coasts (ICAO -Inspección Coastal de Aves Orilladas) through a citizen science action. This work, started in the 1980s, will be, from the launch of this application (2018), much more comfortable for all participating volunteers. They must be thanked for their field work and contribution of observations without which it would not be possible to work on the conservation of birds.

This app has been developed within the Life IP Intemares project, the largest marine conservation project in Europe, which seeks to achieve effective management of the marine spaces of the Natura 2000 Network with the active participation of the sectors involved and with research as tools decision-making. It is coordinated by MITECO through the Biodiversity Foundation, and acts as a partner through the General Directorate for Sustainability of the Coast and the Sea. IEO, CEPESCA, SEO/BirdLife and WWF also participate as partners. It has the financial contribution of the LIFE Program of the EU, as well as the ESF and the FEMP, among other sources of financing.

The current version of the app is co-funded by the EU LIFE Program through the LIFE Seabil project for the Protection of Seabirds from human debris with LPO, LIENSS, UAL, SEO/BirdLife and SPEA as partners.
