Beschrijving

Meetnetten.be - Bat maternity roosts counts Flanders, Belgium is a sampling event dataset published by the Research Institute of Nature and Forest (INBO). It is part of the Meetnetten.be suite of monitoring networks for priority species in Flanders, in which data are collected at fixed locations using a standardized protocol https://meetnetten.be). This dataset contains bat maternity roosts count data of four target bat species (Geoffroy's bat, Brown long-eared bat, Grey long-eared bat and Serotine bat). Here it is published as a standardized Darwin Core Archive and includes for each sampling event an eventID, date, location and sampling protocol (in the event core), and for each occurrence an occurrenceID, the number of recorded individuals, status (present/absent) and scientific name (in the occurrence extension). Issues with the dataset can be reported at https://github.com/inbo/meetnetten-occurrences/issues Generalized and/or withheld information: as this dataset includes sensitive priority species, location information is generalized for all bat species to 5 or 10 km Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) grid cells. Original locations are available upon request. We have released this dataset to the public domain under a Creative Commons Zero waiver. We would appreciate it if you follow the INBO norms for data use https://www.inbo.be/en/norms-data-use) when using the data.

Flanders, Belgium

Gegevenskwaliteit

Data are collected using predefined sampling protocols.

Methoden

Researchers from INBO and Natuurpunt Studie define and document the appropriate sampling protocols for the target species.Fieldwork is planned and coordinated by Natuurpunt Studie, using https://meetnetten.be.Data are collected in the field by specialized volunteers, using the predefined sampling protocols.Volunteers enter the collected data in https://meetnetten.be.A custom SQL view is created in the meetnetten.be database (exceptionally combining two protocolIDs due to their complementarity) to map the original data to Darwin Core as an event core and occurrence extension.The Darwin Core views are connected to the INBO IPT and documented with metadata.The dataset is published and registered with GBIF.
