ABOUT

Anitra platform is a flexible environment that allows storing, analyzing, and visualizing telemetry data. On top of actual telemetry data, a lot of additional metainformation and field information or attachments can be stored to document and visualize data in a very rich context. Anitra is primarily tailored to manage even very complex telemetry or other conservation/research projects.
The functionality includes an advanced presentation in maps, flexible data manipulation, and a very elaborate data sharing scheme. These features are fit for projects which seek to collaborate in large and heterogeneous teams and hence to share their data in a very controlled way in an aggregated, simplified, secured, or temporary form.
The LIFE EUROKITE project team reached out to other data owners and together they make the data of alive tagged Red kites visible temporarily to all the coordinators or even field volunteers of Red kite wintering census events. Anitra platform it the key tool which enables that. The prime intention and focus is to support contributors of the Life Eurokite wintering census but at the same time participants of other censuses such as National or European can benefit the from the datasets nad from Anitra functionality at the same time.
Note the guide below is just a quick overview of few selected features which might be particularly useful for the winter count participants. For browsing the complete platform guide go to Anitra Platform User Guide. For more about Anitra brand refer to our anitracking.com web presentation


These are the tips on how to quickly use the platform to visualise winter count data:

Use Anitra „main map“ and data filters below

The map after loading it show the last positions of all the tagged birds for which the user has at least visibility rights.
Filters below the map can be used to refine what you wish to see. Note the particular importance of the "Days" filter which can limit data displayed to X defined days back

Use the left side Layers/POIs menu to display the shared support datasets

The left side panel is shown using the marked symbol on the map. Chose any layers helping you with the fieldwork. You can manage what is displayed or hidden by selecting the layers at various levels

See the map object details

by hovering the mouse over tracking points or clicking POI icons

Switch between various base maps

Map02 mapfilterfilled.JPG

Use the Anitra Last point marks to identify animals recently in your area of interest and to load past tracks for the selected animals in the map

Map02 mapfilterfilled.JPG

Click on the last point tooltip or use the rectangle tool (CTRL + dragging by the left mouse button) to select/manage multiple Animals and check to load tracking data. Full tracks (depending on the defined interval below the map) will be loaded


Show/hide whatever tracking related detail you wish to see in the map

Map02 mapfilterfilled.JPG

Consider understanding and using following options/controls according to what might help you most depending on the particular situation.

In most night roost analyzing situations following options will give you a comprehensive overview of where the tagged birds sleep and where they forage during the day • showing/hiding the „Last Points“ • highlighting all the „Night positions“ • unchecking „waypoints“

Zooming the map

Map02 mapfilterfilled.JPG

gives full detail on exact spots used for roosting and even info how many different tagged birds used the roost site (various colors)

Combine the tracking and support information available for you

Map02 mapfilterfilled.JPG

„Anitra night cluster“ functionality (i.e. clustered 3 nights backward) can give you the most up to date info on what is the actual location of the night roost

Check the situation around Eurokite Red kite roostsites

Map02 mapfilterfilled.JPG

Display the priority roosts for Eurokite project (cyan star icons) and check the current situation around.

Document any additional roost sites using „Create new POI“ functionality

Map02 mapfilterfilled.JPG

you can add any additional roost sites yourself as s dedicated type of POI (point of interest) • Use the „create new POI“ item from the right-click context dialog over the map

• Set the POI type to „Roost site“ and select the object shape (a „point“ is a default option in this case)

• Enter preferred name for the site, add cour comment, specify species and define the location in the map. You can also modify the map placemark color using the „Style“ icon

• Once filled in, confirm the dialog by the green check in the top right corner. • A new browsing path „Roost site“ will be displayed in the left POI panel

Add RoostSite checks using „Create new POI“ functionality

you can also attach photos related to your observations like this and display later on


Check the Anitra help pages for more Anitra usage info

The help is available under the „question mark“ icon in the left side navigation menu or in the right-click context dialog
