Adminitrators:
Atlas code: alpha-numeric coding indicating breeding evidence. Different coding systems exist, and are country-specific. Look to your local guideline how to use it.
Basic list: list in which only the species compulsoy for the protocol are counted. See protocols for more information.
Biogeographical area: a geographical region with similar characteristics in term of native species.
Casual observation: an observation by itself, that is not connected to any other observation, as in a list, for example.
Complete list: list in which all species detected are identified and recorded.
EBCC: European Birds Census Council (www.ebcc.info).
Extended list: list in which all compulsory species for the protocol are counted along with other related species. See protocols for more information.
Interface: in this case, the way the information is shown to the user through a web site (Web interface) or a phone application (Mobile interface).
Observation list: a timed and structured way to enter your observation for a given date and location.
Partial list: A list in which not all species detected are recorded.
Projects:
Protocol: standardised way of collecting data. Different protocols follow different methodologies, and are country-specific.
Rarity Comittee: an independent group of ornithologists evaluating if exceptional observations could be considered for scientific studies. See Rarity Committees in Europe at www.aerc.eu.
Registered user: someone using any of our software being logged in. To log in, one must regiser first.
Restricted list: A list in which only the compulsory species for the specified survey are counted. See protocols for more information.
Shapefile: Format to store, import and export geometrical data (.shp). It corresponds to each layer of a GIS project. Elements in the shapefile (oints, vectors and polygons) can be visualised and mdified with GIS software.
Species list: a relation of all species available for a given region from which you can select when entering observations.
Synoptic map: A map representing a summary (i.e. number of species, observations per year...)
Unregistered user: someone using any of our software before logging in.
