Zusammenfassung:Studying migration is critically important for understanding the full-annual cycle of migrating birds and aids in management and conservation. In recent years, global positioning system (GPS) and platform transmitting terminal (PTT) tags have become miniaturized, revolutionizing migration research by allowing for higher location accuracy and global coverage for smaller species. We reviewed 116 primary research papers from 2006 to 2021 that reported on GPS- or PTT-tagged small birds (
