Downloading specific Plant Survey Records

Submitted by CharlieLimaBravo on

Is it possible to filter downloads to select only records from a specifc Plant Survey recorded on the iRecord app.

The records are clearly tagged as belonging to a particular group as amending a single record within the set produces a warning that other records in the set could be affected.

 

Habitat definition

Submitted by christineann9@… on

Hi, is there somewhere you define the different categories of habitat available in the drop-down box on the recording page? In particular, what does 'mixed' mean in this context? For example would it cover a site with some trees, some hedgerow, some scrub, some grassy areas? Partly wild and partly managed?  Thanks.

Sharing the records of an activity with non-members

Submitted by mans0954 on

Hello,

I've been asked if it's possible to share the records associated with an activity with a much wider range of people than those involved in the recording. E.g. a small number of people are making records in a churchyard but would like to share the results with the congregation and wider community, most of whom won't be submitting records and therefore don't have iRecord accounts.

I'm aware that individual records can be shared with anonymous users via a URL such as:

Map search filters

Submitted by JulianL on

Hello.  I am trying to search an area on the map.  I can see there are lots of records, but there is a entered a 4 digit grid reference that covers everything.  Clicking the map shows this result as I assume it is the highest map layer.  Is there a way to filter the map to exclude records with grid references less than 6 or maybe 8 digits?  Thank you
