Gegevenskwaliteit
All observations in this dataset tagged to INBO have undergone a quality control process to ensure reliability and consistency. Observations were submitted by trained INBO staff or collaborators and reviewed using validation tools integrated in the waarnemingen.be platform. Records were automatically screened for spatial, temporal, and taxonomic anomalies, and suspect records were flagged for expert review. In addition, many observations were manually verified by species experts within INBO or by moderators active on waarnemingen.be. Only records meeting INBO’s internal validation criteria were included in this dataset.
Methoden
Data Collection: Observations were collected by INBO researchers, collaborators, and citizen scientists through the waarnemingen.be platform and the ObsMapp mobile application. Fieldwork was conducted across various habitats in Flanders, with a focus on plant species present in forests, wetlands, grasslands, and other ecosystems. Data were recorded in real-time, including species identification, location (GPS coordinates), and observation date.Data Entry and Upload: Field data were entered directly into the waarnemingen.be platform, which automatically synchronizes with the central Waarnemingen database. In some cases, observers manually uploaded field data collected offline to the platform.Data Validation: Once uploaded, records underwent automatic validation within waarnemingen.be, where checks for spatial and temporal consistency were performed. Additionally, records were reviewed for taxonomic accuracy by INBO experts or platform moderators. Any suspicious or ambiguous records were flagged and either corrected or excluded.Data Processing: The dataset was extracted from the Waarnemingen database and curated to ensure it included only relevant plant observations. Data were mapped and standardized to Darwin Core in SQLITE and RThe final, validated dataset was released to the public under a Creative Commons Zero waiver, making it freely available for research, conservation, and educational purposes.
