Redmap (South Australia) - Sightings of Reptilian 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 see Point of Contact.

Redmap 是一个以社区为核心的线上平台，旨在邀请公众识别、记录并标注在其所在区域或特定海岸沿线较为罕见的海洋物种。所收集的信息将被可视化标注并展示于平台之上，随时间推移直观呈现物种分布的变化趋势。

观测记录分为两类：一类是配有照片、可经海洋生物学家验证的正式观测记录，另一类是未附照片的社区上报记录（即传闻类观测）。所有收集到的记录（无论是否附带照片）均会被进行可视化标注，并将在未来数年中用于梳理海洋环境变化的完整脉络。

平台收集的核心数据包括观测到的物种（通常从预设的关注物种名录中选取）、观测地点、日期时间以及当时开展的活动。此外还可收集可选补充信息，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、水温及栖息生境）。

本记录关联实时动态数据（后续将随时间更新），且其中的空间要素精度有所降低。同时该数据集设有三年延期公开期（即不包含发布时长不足三年的观测数据）。若您希望获取可引用的静态数据集（该数据集可为最新版本，或包含高精度空间坐标信息），请参阅数据联络人信息。
