  1. Ondersteuningsartikel: What is MERIT?

    Monitoring Evaluation Reporting and Improvement Tool (MERIT) is the Australian Government Department of the Environment and Energy’s online reporting tool and is designed to collect and store planning, monitoring and reporting data associated with natural resource management grants projects funded by the Australian Government. The system aggregates project data to tell a whole-of-programme story about the impact of natural resource management investments...

  2. Ondersteuningsartikel: What can I map?

    In the Atlas Spatial Portal, you can map: taxa (species, genus etc., lists of taxa) occurrences as points where available, species polygons as best spatial estimates of their distributions areas as defined interactively on the map, defined by features or environment, or uploaded environmental layers as grids of continuous values, eg annual rainfall, and contextual layers of polygons with class values, eg land use. all occurrence records as defined by (attributes, called facets)

  3. Ondersteuningsartikel: Nearest location

    If you want to find the closest named location (a gazetteer location) to any point within the Australian region, you can simply click on the map in the Spatial Portal and the closest 5 locations will be displayed. Why would you use this function? An example may illustrate why. A group of Atlas users focusing on Australia’s islands wanted to find out what information was available on all Australian islands...

  4. Ondersteuningsartikel: Scatterplot case study

    Exploring patterns in biodiversity data Author: Dr Ben Raymond, Australian Antarctic Division, Hobart Dr Ben Raymond, Australian Antarctic Division The Atlas of Living Australia provides access to a wealth of biodiversity data, as well as a suite of analysis tools that allow users to explore patterns in species occurrences and their relationships to environmental conditions...

  5. Ondersteuningsartikel: Tabulation Case Study

    Author: Lee Belbin Tabulation in the Spatial Portal of the Atlas of Living Australia is a powerful way of comparing how species and areas are partitioned. Think of tabulations as the categorical (class) equivalent to scatterplots. Scatterplots display species occurrences against two environmental variables represented as X and Y-axes, for example ‘Mean annual temperature’ or ‘Annual rainfall’. Tabulations replace these X and Y axes of continuous numeric values with categories or classes...

  6. Ondersteuningsartikel: Compare areas

    Compare areas is a simple tool that will show the differences between any two defined areas in terms of species composition and area. To compare the species in 2 areas: 1. On the spatial portal page, select Add to map | Area to define the areas to be compared. Areas can be generated or determined by any of the options available under Add to Map | Area. 2. Define the second area in the same way. 3. Select Tools | Compare points The Compare points popup wizard will open...

  7. Ondersteuningsartikel: Generate points

    This tool enables a regular square grid of points to be generated over any user-defined area. It is anticipated that the points generated would be used to sample any of the environmental or contextual layers in the Spatial Portal. For example, a summary of the environment of an area could be calculated by generating the grid points, sampling the relevant layers and then analyzing the exported sample...

  8. Ondersteuningsartikel: How to show the distribution of a species on a map of Australia

    User Guide 2 Begin at the Atlas of Living Australia homepage. Click on Search & analyse, then choose Spatial analysis (Spatial Portal). Select Add to Map, then Species. Type the species or common name, then click Next. Check all the other aspects you need by using the ticks to the left. Then click Next. The dots on the map show occurrence records for that species. You can change the colour, size and opacity of the dots. You can also change it to points from a density grid...

  9. Ondersteuningsartikel: BioCollect and iNaturalist

    BioCollect and iNaturalist are tools which can help you collect data and contribute to the Atlas of Living Australia (ALA). Depending on the nature of your project, either BioCollect or iNaturalist may be better suited to your needs. To help you decide, some of the reasons you might choose either the platform are outlined below...

  10. Ondersteuningsartikel: What are environmental and contextual spatial layers?

    What are spatial layers? In the context of the Spatial Portal of the Atlas of Living Australia, we use ‘layers’ to describe the concept of a surface draped over the landscape, where the spatial extent can be from a few tens of square kilometres to global scale. We have several hundred layers from ~70 data providers...
