Device Status Management

To have a full array of Anitra functionality available (data filtering, mortality warnings, advanced sharing, etc.) maintain the Device statuses in line with reality.

Backup / Pool: 
To be used for spare/pool devices which are not currently deployed and are ready to be (re)used in the future.
New purchased devices receive "Backup/Pool" status automatically
Deployed: 
Use for devices that are currently deployed on animals and still collecting/sending data (at least potentially)
Tags are automaticaly moved from Backup/Pool to Deployed status when user enters information on the tag deployment (Tracking) and about Tracked Animal. Check the detailed guide here.
Deployed status is additionaly automatically extended by the system based on the information on the last data delivered
Deployed Active: known to have delivered fresh data within last 7 days
Deployed Missing: last data older than 7 days
Archive / Discarded:
Meant for achieving data of "out of use" devices not expected to deliver any new data (inactivated, suspended, finished)
Turning the device into this state suppresses the warning and notification scheme
Note that devices created using import functionality are by default switched to "Archieve" state

Tracking EndDate

  • Device Statuses are meant to help to control active Loggers >> Tracked Objects (Trackings). In order to receive a meaningful warning, it is highly recommended not only to turn inactive devices to Archive but also to end related active Tracked Objects (Trackings) whenever the tracking in the field is over (i.e. you do not expect to receive any new data).
    • Ending Tracked Object / Tracking is done by filling in date into field "End of tracking" in the Tracking profile
    • "End Of Tracking" field leaves space for individual interpretation. For instance in case of mortality you can include the period when the tracked individual was alive only or you might as well close the tracking date later when the device was physically found and removed.
    • Note that you can additionally enter more detail related to mortality event ("Estimated date of death", "Mortality Reason", "Mortality Note", "Mortality Photos/Documents/Reports")


Mortality warnings

DTO000.JPG

  • Notifies on possible mortality in the last position of finished (archive) trackings
  • You can set the end date of tracking so that the mortality sign is displayed in your archive data (see the end date for the first two tracked objects in example no 1)

DTO0000.JPG

  • Warns on possible mortality detected in the last position of active trackings
  • In order to have relevant red warnings shown correct device/TO configuration needs to be kept by project admin
Note. the detection of mortality is currently based on
  • Anitra: dedicated sensor/accelerometer mortality detection logic
  • Ornitela: identical body position between subsequent measurements
  • Ecotone Activity column with a simple rule (Activity < 10) triggering the alert. More complex logic is being developed for Anitra native devices
  • You can find these last data mortality warnings on various screens of the Anitra platform:
    • Device list (only Red warning for Active trackings)

  • Device Profile

  • Tracking List (both Red warnings for Active trackings and Black Info for Archive trackings)

  • Tracking profile

  • Map (both Red warnings for Active trackings and Black Info for Archive trackings)

  • Device Owner/Admins can freely switch devices from one state to another and modify Tracking end dates in order to achieve desired Anitra behavior
