This dataset includes occurrence data of mammals in the Sakleshpura region, Hassan, Karnataka, India collected between 2022 and 2024. Data were recorded on a mobile phone application as direct sightings or from indirect signs in the field. Photographs were taken whenever possible by observers.Sampling Description

Opportunistic observations of mammals were carried out during our fieldwork in the Sakleshpura region from 2022 to 2024.Quality Control
Observations were made either by direct observation or indirect signs like pugmarks or vocalisations by trained field researchers who are familiar with the local biodiversity.Method steps
- Data from the mobile data collection platform (ODK) was compiled. Later for observations without exact GPS locations, the latitude and longitude information were acquired from the nearest place of sighting with a GPS uncertainty measure in meters. The original datafile along with metadata, R codes and images were uploaded to zenodo (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.13340613). Using R code the CSV files from Zenodo was converted to GBIF Darwin Core format for upload.
