Meadow birds are a group of species native to the Netherlands characterized by breeding in meadows that has been in decline over the last several decades, despite widespread conservation efforts. Agricultural intensification is thought to be one of the main causes of this decline, but no yearly data exists on the surrounding ecology of these birds. Recent efforts have tried to assess the food supply of meadow birds by setting sticky traps and counting the number of insects caught on them. However, this approach cannot be applied on a large scale since counting the insects is very labour intensive and unappealing to the volunteers that contribute to this research. To get a better assessment of the food supply at a larger scale, we present a system to automate counting of insects on sticky traps. The system is intended to process uploaded images and metadata using computer vision techniques to determine the number of insects found in photographs taken from the sticky traps. 1 https://github.com/naturalis/imgpheno 2
