Introduction
All data submitted to a local portal or recorded through the App NaturaList and synchronised, is stored at https://data.biolovision.net.
It serves as worldwide unique portal and:
· Stores observations in areas not covered by any local portal
· Stores observations for all taxonomic groups independently of the taxonomic groups opened on each local portal
At the moment one cannot edit observations or see other's data. Sounds and images are stored although it is not currently possible to see them.
Registered users can:
· See own data
· Export own data
· Share own data
· Calculate ephemerides
· See some statistics
· See data submissions worldwide in real time
