Awesome! No better state to find diversity in!
Excellent news...keep it up
Woo hoo! Keep up the great curation! :)
How does that work, exactly? As of midnight 16 August, there are 99, 824 observations listed for Alabama. Are some Biodiversity of Alabama iNaturalist Project listings from out of state?
Not sure why the total observation count you see on the project's page differs from what I see. It is currently 101,445 as of 5:45 AM CT Aug. 17, 2018. The project rules are limited the observations from Alabama, so there should be no records from out of state.
I noticed this morning there are two Biodiversity of Alabama projects. One has a period after "Alabama". That one is under the umbrella of Biodiversity of the 50 states project. This one is under University umbrella. The 50-states project total observations match with what I was seeing. If I go to "explore" and limit the area to "Alabama" I get a different number of observations than this project. Either way, the count is close to 100,00. John Friel, you should be congratulated for getting Alabama residents to post observations. Thanks!
