The video search portal enables searching for and downloading of video content based on species and video flags (currently just those flagged as Cool). The search can then be filtered by location. It currently only includes trail camera videos.
Click on https://boothby.wildmap.org/deployment (replace the site with haroldspark or highfen - we will soon combine this all into one Nattergal URL)
In the search box you can
- Type a species name - this can be the full name (e.g. Red Fox) or partial (e.g. Fox) for a wider search
- Type Cool followed by colon and a species - e.g. Cool:Red Fox to see only the best videos of that species
This will result in a list of all videos that match the search criteria. Click on a video and then the Play button to view it.
Refine the search based on location
To refine the search based on location, click on the Show Map link to the top right of the search panel. Pan around the map and zoom in. Click on a location of interest - this will reorder videos based on proximity to the location clicked.
