The Goose and Swan Monitoring Programme (GSMP) is an established monitoring programme that aims to deliver population estimates and trends both at UK and at site level for selected goose and migratory swan populations, as well as to provide data and information about the demographic factors (e.g. breeding success) driving those trends.
