Para acceder a la gestión de un protocolo necesitas tener Derechos de gestión de protocolos. Sólo los administradores de la página local puede darte acceso bajo ciertas condiciones.
Hay dos formas de acceder a la gestión de protocolos:
Desde el Manú principal > Administración
Si eres administrador, ves a la sección de administración en la columna de la izquierda (ver la imagen Administración), y ves a Gestión de protocolos. Abre el panel y selecciona Gestión de protocolos (ver imagen Gestión de protocolos).

Desde el Menú principal> Participar > Todos mis protocolos
Ves al Menú principal > Participar > Todos mis protocolos. Se mostrarán todos los protocolos a los que tienes acceso, sea como administrador o usuario sin derechos especiales. Los usuarios sin derechos especiales también pueden acceder de esta manera pero no verán todas las acciones disponibles para ese protocolo.

Species list
Parametring a species list helps users to report all species of the protocol without forgetting any. It is faster for the user to enter records in the field because they only have to fill the number of individuals for mandatory species.
Please take time as an administrator to fill this section before the fieldwork season starts.
An extended list is useful if you want to add interesting but not mandatory species to a report.
List of species designated as part of a basic or an extended list. If no species are designated as part of any list, the section appears empty but users are still asked to indicate which list they are using. Use arrows under titles to alternate between ascending and descending order (see image as an example).

Day: Shows results per day. This is the default option.
Pentad: Shows results in groups of five days.
Week: Shows results per week.
Decade: Shows results in groups of ten days.
Month: Shows results per month.
Year: Shows results per year.
3. Spatial aggregation
Select spatial aggregating criteria from the expandable menu on the right. Options are:
Country: Results are grouped per area covered by the local portal. If the portal only covers part of the country, only this part is considered; if the local portal covers the whole country, all the country is considered.
Canton: Cantons are country-specific administrative defined areas. Their official name differs from country to country: Kreis, province, district, commarca, county, and so on.
Municipality: Municipality, like a canton, is an area administratively defined and country specific.
Supersite: A supersite is a place that includes many other localities, and can only be used if it was previously created.
Place: A place is a group of Localities (see below) linked together within the protocol. It is either represented on the map by a yellow dot or hidden. For example, in STOC EPS census, one may have different point counts in a square. Each of the points represents a Locality, but the square with all the points is a Place. Do the search accordingly. Note sometimes Place and Locality are the same. For example, in the Common breeding bird survey, a Locality represents a transect, and there is only one transect per square.
Locality: A Locality is the exact location a survey takes place. It may represent a point, a transect or a polygon, depending on the study, and it is represented on the map as a dot.

The user can indicate if there has been any major change since their previous count, for example, some disturbance like noise or construction.
Record the trace
By checking a cell, the user can have their track recorded.
Hide all records from the public
By checking the cell, the user hides all observations from the public. The observer an protocol administrators will always see them.
No species were seen
Allows the user to indicate if despite visiting the site and following the guidelines, there were no records.
WATERBIRD Parameters
Shows the status of the Free area tool parameter for the Waterbird census protocol:
YES: Free area tool is active.
NO: Free area tool is inactive.
When active, it allows both users and administrators to see polygons that have not yet been assigned to an observer. Users can ask to be assigned to a site. See wiki section Web interace > Free area tool for details.

2. Site / Observer
Select a site and/or an observer from the expandable menu. Type the name, or part of it, if nedeed to reduce the list of options. If only a site is observed, you will see surveys from all observers; if only an observer is selected, you will see all sites the observer has access to. See image below as an example of its results.

Place pointer on any coloured square to display date of survey and number of species recorded. Click on any date to display a list of species recorded on a new window.
Select a count period and a region from the expandable menu. A list will show all sites without data for the selected period and observers assigned to each of the listed sites. Click on any observer's name to access their personal card. Check the e-mail cell (image below, A) to send a message to the observer/s at the site; or check check all on top (image below, B) to send a general message to all observers at all sites.

1. Filter dates
Select the starting and ending date using the expandable calendar on the right.
2. Temporal aggregation
Select aggregating criteria from the expandable menu on the right. Options are:
Day: Shows results per day. This is the default option.
Pentad: Shows results in groups of five days.
Week: Shows results per week.
Decade: Shows results in groups of ten days.
Month: Shows results per month.
Year: Shows results per year.
3. Spatial aggregation
Select spatial aggregating criteria from the expandable menu on the right. Options are:
Country: Results are grouped per area covered by the local portal. If the portal only covers part of the country, only this part is considered; if the local portal covers the whole country, all the country is considered.
Kanton: Kantons are country-specific administrative defined areas. Their official name differs from country to country: Kreis, province, commarca, county, and so on.
Municipality: Municipality, like kanton, is an area administratively defined and country specific.
Supersite: A supersite is a place that includes many other localities, and can only be used if it was previously created.
Place: A place is a group of Localities (see below) linked toghether within the protocol. It is either represented on the map by a yellow dot or hidden. For example, in STOC EPS census, one may have different point counts in a square. Each of the points represents a Locality, but the square with all the points is a Place. Do the search accordingly. Note sometimes Place and Locality are the same. For example, in the Common breeding bird survey, a Locality represents a transect, and there is only one transect per square.
Locality: A Locality is the exact location a survey takes place. It may represent a point, a transect or a polygon, depending on the study, and it is represented on the map as a dot.

2. Temporal aggregation: Results aggregated by time. In this example, per week. Weeks with no data, remain empty. Use the horizontal bar at the bottom to scroll through all results. 3. Spatial aggregation: Results aggregated by place. In this example, by locality. All study sites at the selected locality appear separately. Use the vertical bar on the right to scroll through all results. 5. List of species: List of species registered at each site.
