Observation Groups
The izeltlabuak.hu website primarily focuses on arthropods found in Hungary. This entry also deals with Hungarian fauna.
Overview
With observation groups, you can organize your observations logically. This is particularly useful if you want to group your observations for different purposes:
- For different projects or research purposes
- For events (e.g. European Moth Night, National Moth Week)
- Observations from one area (e.g. Naszály, Mecsek)
- Observations from one trip (e.g. Mecsek 2024.05.18-19)
Observation groups help with:
- Better overview of your observations
- More efficient data management and organization
- Project-based work and research
- Event-specific observation handling
Example: László Cseke's observation groups
