Redmap (New South Wales) - Sightings of Bony Fish Species

Redmap is a primarily a website that invites the community to spot, log and map marine species that are uncommon in their region, or along particular parts of their coast. The information collected is mapped and displayed on the site, demonstrating, in time, how species distributions may be changing.Sightings are divided into two categories – those with a photo that can be ‘verified’ by a marine biologist, and sightings without photos that we call community sightings (anecdotal). All the information collected, with and without photos, is mapped and will be used in the following years to map out a ‘story’ of changes occurring in our marine environment.The main data collected includes the species sighted (normally selected from a list comprising preselected species of interest), the location, date/time and activity being undertaken. Other optional information gathered include biological data such as sex, size and weight and environmental data such as water depth and temperature and habitat.This record is associated with live data (and will subsequently change over time) and spatial elements have reduced accuracy. It is also subject to a three year embargo (ie. does not contain data less than three years old). If you wish to discuss obtaining a citable, static dataset, that is current and/or contains accurate spatial elements, please email [e-mail].

Redmap 是一个核心为网站的公众科学参与平台，旨在邀请社区成员识别、记录并标注在其所在区域或沿岸特定区域较为罕见的海洋物种。平台会将收集到的信息进行空间制图并展示，随时间推移逐步呈现物种分布的变化趋势。
目击记录分为两类：一类是附带照片、可由海洋生物学家完成验证的正式记录；另一类为未附带照片的记录，我们称之为社区目击记录（anecdotal 传闻类记录）。所有收集到的记录（无论是否附带照片）均会进行空间制图，并将在后续年份中用于梳理我们海洋环境所发生变化的完整脉络。
收集的核心数据包括目击物种（通常从预设的关注物种列表中选取）、观测地点、观测日期与时间，以及观测时开展的活动。此外还可收集其他可选补充信息，涵盖生物相关数据（如物种性别、体型、体重）与环境相关数据（如水深、水温及栖息环境）。
本记录关联实时数据（后续将随时间动态更新），且其中的空间要素精度有所降低。同时该记录还设有三年 embargo 期（即不包含三年内的观测数据）。若您希望获取可引用的静态数据集（该数据集为最新版本且/或包含高精度空间信息），请发送邮件至[e-mail]进行咨询。
