  1. Support article: Flagging an issue with a record

    Jump to Section: Background How to flag a record Background Large-scale biodiversity data repositories may contain incorrect data, whether that be from accidentally misidentified species or from general mistakes in data entry. The Atlas of Living Australia (ALA) uses automatic cleaning and filtering mechanisms during data ingestion...

  2. Support article: Search by location

    Jump to section: Explore your area Explore regions Spatial search I saw a plant/animal, but I don't know what it is! There are a few different ways to search by location in the Atlas of Living Australia. The most used is “Explore your Area”, but there are other options, including “Explore regions” and “Spatial search” which you might find useful. Searching by location rather than by species can be useful for a few different reasons: 1...

  3. Support article: Scatterplot

    Please note: this guide has been written in relation to version 2.0 of the spatial portal due to brought into production in 2019. A different version of the portal will allow similar functions with some small differences in the user interface. If you are unable to access a required function, please contact support@ala.org.au. The scatterplot function links the sampled values of any two environmental variables on a species (or genus etc) with the map...

  4. Biodiversity Science project: Urban food gardening

    The long term research goal of this project is to understand the changing structure and function of the varied forms of agriculture, and the services it provides in the rapidly urbanizing Central-Arizona Phoenix (CAP) region. The specific goal for this citizen science component is to collect data on the diversity of home and community gardens in Maricopa County, which roughly covers the Phoenix metropolitan region. Recently there has been a lot of enthusiasm around “growing your own food...

  5. Biodiversity Science project: Farm dams as refuges for freshwater plants and animals in a drying climate.

    The climate of the south-west region of WA is drying rapidly. Already many wetlands and streams no longer contain water at any time. Many other wetlands and streams have changed from perennial (containing water year round) to seasonal (containing water only in winter and spring). Water regime (the volume and timing of water) is the most important determinant of stream and wetland biodiversity...

  6. Support article: Setting up a project

    To set up a BioCollect project you will need an active Atlas of Living Australia user account. Click here for information on creating an ALA account. To create a project, first go to the hub you would you like your project to appear in - Citizen Science, Ecology or Natural Resource Management. At the menu at very top of the page click on ‘Add your project’. You will then be asked to enter your project information...

  7. Biodiversity Science project: Long term marine ecology project

    Australia’s south eastern coastline is home to an array of unique and fascinating marine life. These organisms have adapted and acclimatised to temperate (cold water) conditions. However, climate change modelling predicts that Australia’s surrounding oceans will warm by 1–2 ⁰C by 2070, with the south east coast of Australia expected to feel the greatest effects due to increased strength and penetration of the East Australian Current (EAC)...

  8. Support article: Data cleaning

    Jump to section: Data variables Anomalies What is an outlier (is it an environmental outlier or an issue with the data)? References The Atlas of Living Australia is a data aggregator, we collate data from our providers making them available to our users. The ALA does not own the data we display. The data we receive come in different forms and of different qualities, bringing many challenges. Data errors can occur in multiple places from data collection through the ingestion process...

  9. Support article: Taxonomy in the ALA

    Jump to section: Why does the ALA need a taxonomic backbone? How does the taxonomic backbone work in the ALA? 1. Combine taxonomy data from multiple authoritative sources 2. Build an index of names and classify them into a tree 3. Match incoming records to names in the index 3.1 Occurrence records 3.2 Species Lists 3.3 Species Search API Useful Examples 1. Resolving names from different authorities 2. Resolving an unrecognised name using a higher match 3...

  10. Support article: 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...
