Dataset homepage

Citation

Kent & Medway Biological Records Centre (2017). Orthoptera & Allies: Records for Kent. Occurrence dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/0rtrrm accessed via GBIF.org on 2019-12-16.

Description

Orthoptera & Allied Insects: Records administered by the KMBRC.

Purpose

These records have been collected under several different surveys. Some for the purposes of EIA, others as part of Kent recorder’s activities.

Sampling Description

Quality Control

Records have been collected by a number of volunteers, many of whom already record, and were passed onto Regional Recorders for validation. Data has been entered onto software at the KMBRC and data entry has been audited prior to sending records to the NBN.

Method steps

  1. The records are made up of species observations made by volunteers and submitted to Kent’s Regional Recorders.

Taxonomic Coverages

Geographic Coverages

Coverage for Kent using a combination of Watsonian Vice County boundaries (15 and 16) and the administrative boundary for Kent. The majority of records in this dataset are held at 100m level, some at 1km level, but the dataset will hold some records at 2km and 10km resolution. Records are available at the precision in which they were originally recorded.
