TIP FOR BEGINNERS: 
If you are not yet familiarised with the application, enter records as [[Entering_records#Directly_in_the_field_(+)|'''independent observations''']]. This is the easier option.
As you familiarise with the application, move to other options. Lists are the more useful way to enter data for conservation purposes.

=How to enter data=
 

Start entering observations by, 
1. clicking one of the [[Entering records#quick|quick access keys]], 
2. [[Entering records#file|attaching a sound or image file]] to an observation, or 
3. selecting from the [[Entering records#full|full menu]]. 
 

If you are starting with NaturaList, we recommend you start [[Entering_records#Directly_in_the_field_(+)|entering independent observations]] within the [[Entering records#full|Main menu]].


===1. Quick access keys===
 

Use one of the icons on the top right corner to quickly access one of the following modules to enter data:

 COMPARISON BETWEEN "INDEPENDENT OBSERVATIONS" AND "PREVIOUS OBSERVATIONS" 
 
Entering independent observations is faster as date and time are already selected for you. Selecting a location is also faster if using the aim icon: you are already correctly positioned! 
 
Entering previous observations is useful when observations are noted on another support, such as a paper notebook, on rainy days, when the phone’s battery is low, or for any other reason you prefer not to use your device in the field.

 COMPARISON BETWEEN "A LIST OF PRECISE OBSERVATIONS" AND "A SIMPLIFIED LIST OF OBSERVATIONS" 
 
A list of precise observations preselects date and time for you but requires you to enter the position for each record. If the position of the observation is your current position, use [[File:Aim icon.png|frameless|30px]] to be faster. It also allows entering additional information for each record within each entry. 
 
A simplified list of observations can also be used in the field. In this case, you need to select date as well as starting and ending time. However, you will not be prompted to enter the position for each observation and the additional information menu will not be automatically displayed for each record. This saves time and reduces the chances of missing some individuals. 
 
Use "a simplified list of observations" also in the field in real time if you do not need to get exact positions for each individual or add detailed information (as age, sex, pictures or atlas codes) for most of them.

=Synchronisation=
 


Once records are entered and modified if necessary, synchronize them. 
 

When synchronising: 
· records become public*, 
· validators can verify records, 
· administrators can use records for planning conservation. 
 
*If records were [[Media:20221105Hide records.png|'''hidden from the public''']], they will not be visible to other users, but administrators will still see them, verify them and use them for conservation purposes. 
 


To synchronise, 
· click on the reminder at the bottom of the screen 
· and confirm (see image below). 
 


Once your records are synchronised, you can no longer modify them in NaturaList, but you can do so from your local portal. 
See a list of local portals in the wiki section Various > [[Local portals and partners|Local portals and partners]]. 
Go to wiki section Web interface > [[Editing_records|Editing records]] for more information on how to edit records on the web site. 
If no local portal exists for the site (for example in Africa or outside Europe), go to [https://data.biolovision.net https:data.biolovision.net] to make changes.

 Why to synchronise: 


· Share your observations with fellow naturalists. 
· Participate in conservation initiatives. 
· Back up your records online (otherwise you may loose them if your phone crashes). 
· Confirm dubious records.

:::Upload a file 
 

Direct access to the gallery in your phone. Choose the image or sound to attach to the observation the same way you would select any other file to attach to any platform (e-mail, whatsapp...). Some considerations must be taken into account: 
· The date of the observation must match the date the file was created, if you are attaching a file to the observation you are recording. Some internal adjustments correct for differences in time zone. 
· If you are attaching an observation to an already existing fiel, all information from the file (date, time...) will be automatically recorded onto the observation. 
· Pictures are automatically resized to 3072 pixels on the longest side before being uploaded. 
· Sound files must be maximum 16 MB to upload. 
· Use the share function (instead of open) to upload more than one file at once. File information (date, time, GPS position...) of the first one will be considered the observation's information.

Judit: /* Main interface */

All data submitted to a [[Local portals and partners|local portal]] or recorded through the App [[Main Page#Mobile interface|NaturaList]] and synchronised, is stored at [https://data.biolovision.net/ 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: 
· [[Browsing records (data)|See own data]] 
· [[Export records|Export own data]] 
· Share own data

Judit: /* Main interface */

All data submitted to a [[Local portals and partners|local portal]] or recorded through the App [[Main Page#Mobile interface|NaturaList]] and synchronised, is stored at [https://data.biolovision.net/ 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: 
· [[Browsing records (data)|See own data]] 
· [[Export records|Export own data]] 
· Share own data 
· [[Ephemeris|Calculate ephemerides]] 
· See some statistics 
· [[Introduction#Observations|See data submissions worldwide in real time]]
