This is EXACTLY how the locality info is written on the label. Always enter ALL of the verbatim info here. All data not listed in TagSurv's locality name should be placed in brackets. Ex: Shoal Creek, Austin, Travis ???[Travis County, TX, USA 33.000, -100.000, method: geolocate, accuracy: high] All data needs to be moved over!
Examples of Verbatim locality:
Verbatim | Locality Field |
??, Ill. | unknown locality, Illinois, USA |
illegible label | unknown locality |
If you can only read a part of the label, you can add your own information in square brackets [ ]
Verbatim | Locality Field |
[illegible] River, Travis Co., TX | unknown locality, Travis County, Texas, USA |
Moving data to Specify from Access?
Be aware the information in the Locality field is not formatted to be a locality name.
It is important that all data needs gets moved over.
- The contents of the Access database 'Locality' field become the Verbatim Locality field in Specify.
- You will also need to include information from the geography and georeference columns.
