Verified marine records from Indicia-based surveys

Marine Biological Association

Description

Data include marine records from the following: iSpot records: www.ispotnature.org, iRecord: www.brc.ac.uk/irecord and the MBA Indicia-based recording scheme 'Sealife Survey': www.mba.ac.uk/recording. Records are verified by organisations and individuals with relevant taxonomic expertise from the Marine Biological Association and the Conchological Society.

Geographic Description

Purpose

Data quality

All data has been verified using the iRecord verification system, by relevant taxonomic experts or organisations with considerable taxonomic expertise.

Methods

Records captured from experts and non-experts using Indicia-based online recording forms.
