General stats

The table above shows some general data, such as number of contributions, number of lists, and so on. Change tab to see data concerning different timeframes: all time, only the current year or only the current month. The table underneath shows which amount of this records correspond to each taxonomic group, both in absolute and relative numbers. For example, in image General stats there have been 8 343 080 observations submitted since the site started. Of these, 7 933 672 correspond to bird observations. This represents 95.1% of all observations submitted.

Last table shows the number of species per each taxonomic group, both in absolute and relative numbers. For example, in image General stats there have been 8 343 080 observations submitted since the site started. Of these, there have been 698 species of birds recorded, which represents 37.9% of all species recorded.

Contribution statistics

Temporal distribution

Shows data for number of records, number of observers, number of lists or number of speies across time. Choose from the tabs on top which area you want to visualise. Choose from the expandable menu on the top right the geographical regions you want to see. By default you will see the whole country (see image Temporal distribution per topic below).

Temporal distribution per topic.

Choose from the taps below if you want to see daily, monthly or yearly data. They will show respectively, the last 30 days, the last 15 months and 8 years, or the last 12 years. You can apply filters on the options below the graph. For example, image Temporal distribution. Filters only displays data for birds and butterflies. Tick as appropiate.

Stats by municipality

Shows data grouped by municipality. Choose taxonomic group on top, the year you want to visualise and the geographical region. Move mouse pointer on top to see which number correspond to which region. You will see total data and data for the selected year. For example, from image Stats by municipality we see there have been a total of 6 records refering to amphibians of 3 different species in the municipality of Alénya, regions 66: Pyrénées-Orientales, only one of these records, a species, correspond to the year 2020.

At the top it shows a graph representing the number of observer in different participating countries. Below, you can see the distribution of observers by biogeographic area, region or county. Choose the area from the expandable menu. Choose the timeframe from tabs: all time, this year, this month.

Species stats

Global info

List of the 50 most observed species per taxa.

1. Choose the taxonomic group from the horizontal bar on top. Place mouse pointer on silhouettes to see which group they represent. Use arrows if necessary to see all options.
2. Choose time frame from tabs:

All data: all data hold in the system,

this year: only data from the current year, or

this month: only data from the current month.

The list returns absolute numbers (total number of observations per species, on the right) and relative numbers (percentage of observations this represents from the total, on the left).

Info by species

Information relative to the selected species.

1. Select from the expandable menu the geographical area you want to see the data about.
2. Choose the taxonomic group you are interested in. Use arrows if necessary to see all options. Place mouse pointer on silhouettes to see which taxonomic group they represent.
3. Type a species. Type the beginning of the species name on the left and choose from the expandable menu on the right. Click Display when done.

4. Use tabs to select which type of information you want to see for the selected species.

1. Info

Shows general information about the species, like names in different languages, conservation status or picture (see image below as an example).

2. Stats

Some numbers and graphs about the selected species.

1. Choose time frame from the tabs:

All data: all data hold in the system,

this year: only data from the current year, or

this month: only data from the current month.

2. Summary statistics for the selected time frame. Note number of records in a complete list gives you the records in a complete list relative to the total number of records.

For example in image below (encircled), there have been 4039 sightings of European Robin to date during the current month. 935 of those, were recorded as part of a complete list, which represents 23.1% of all records this month.

3. Graphs area.

Graphs shown are independent of the time frame selected above.

Annual relative frequency of species. Percentage of complete lists containing the species, per week.

Colours represent frequency: dark blue for higher number of records and light green for lower. Place mouse pointer on top to see detailed data for the selected week. Click on Show more for further details.

Relative weekly frequency of the species. Percentage of complete lists containing the species, per week.

Compare the data from different years by checking/unchecking cells underneath. Place mouse pointer on top to see detailed data for a specific date. Click on Show more for more information.

Confinement statistics

Returns observations done from home during the confinement of 2020. Data goes from 14th March to 15th May and compiles all ornitho portals. Choose the portal from the tabs on top (see image Confinement stats: Generales, summary).

Generales

Tap on Generales tab to see general statistics for the choosen portal. On the top area it summarises the number of contributions, area covered and number of observers, for example. Underneath it returns number of contributions per taxonomic group, both in relative and absolute values (see image Confinement stats: Generales, summary).

Confinement stats: Generales, summary.

Underneath, observations are represented on a graph.

Map

It shows a map with the observations for the selected species. Choose the species to visualise from the expandable menu on top (see image Confinement stats: Map). Size of point on map represents the number of observations. To navigate the map, see wiki section Web interface > Navigating the map.

Confinement stats: Map.

Species

Returns a list of all species recorded and its numbers in descending order (see image Confinement stats: Species). Choose the taxonomic group you want to visualise from the expandable menu. The returning list indicates the number of records for each species, and the number of lists including the species both in aboslute and relative numbers. In the given example (see image Confinement stats: Species), House Sparrows were recorded a total of 4698 times in tht ornitho.cat portal, 3845 of these records were part of one of the 4629 total lists recorded. Therefore, House Sparrows were recorded in 83 % of lists submitted. Go to wiki section Web interface > Codes and symbols to see correspondence of colour codes to rarity level (image Symbols for rarity level in Fauna-France). See your own observations by clicking on the button above the list (see image Confinement stats: Species).

Confinement stats: Species.

Observers

A graph on top represents the number of active observers during each day of confinement. Underneath, observers are listed along with their corresponding number of records, lists and hours of observation. Those contributing higher number of lists are on top. On the example below (see image Confinement stats: Observers), the observer contributing the most lists, their name hidden, recorded a total of 3975 observations of 65 different species belonging to 348 lists during over 6h of observation.
