Following publication of the original article [1], the authors, in compliance with a trademark owner’s request, have agreed to change the name of their software package from BIOTAS (BIOTelemetry Analysis Software) to MAST (Movement Analysis Software for Telemetry data). To reflect this change, the term BIOTAS has been changed to MAST throughout the manuscript, including the references. The authors also made some minor changes to the text to maintain the context and to indicate that the false-positive removal is only one module of the software presented in this article. Finally, the authors have also changed the name of the associated software on Kevin Nebiolo’s Github repository to MAST.

Change from: “We present BIOTelemetry Analsys Software (BIOTAS) for the semi-automated removal of false positive detections from telemetry data (Nebiolo & Castro-Santos, 2021).”

To: “We present a module of Movement Analysis Software for Telemetry data (MAST) for the semi-automated removal of false positive detections from radio and other forms of telemetry data (Nebiolo & Castro-Santos, 2021).”

Change from: “A thorough ReadMe describing the software, installation, and use guiding researchers through a radio-telemetry project can be found at the project’s GitHub: https://github.com/knebiolo/biotas.”

To: “A thorough ReadMe describing the software, installation, and use guiding researchers through a radio-telemetry project, including false positive removal routines, can be found at the project’s GitHub: https://github.com/knebiolo/MAST.”

The changes do not alter any aspect of the methods, results, or conclusions stated within the article.

The original article [1] has been updated.
