Feature request details:
After several years of successful Bioblitzes, there is a large bank of images of cultivated plants marked “not wild”. However, these images are not readily accessible to the casual user through the Photo Browser. For easy access, it would be great to add “Captive” to the pulldown where circled in the screenshot. (The filter is currently available through the Identify pane, but that introduces more of a learning curve just to see the pictures.)
A more accessible view of these plants could also incentivize Phenology annotation within the Captive dataset. That annotation could be useful later to help illustrate plant features to other people (such as bioblitz participants, or identifiers who are assisting) with a simple Photo Browser-based link.
There are valid data also on casual observations, I think that a way to filter out capitve individuals would be useful. On this regard, this option would be great for projects.
Captive/cultivated status can be used as a filter on traditional projects. Grade (casual, research grade) can be used as a filter on collection projects, so this somewhat gets at captive/cultivated. I don’t know if there’s a way to specifically target captive/cultivated on collection projects though.
Technically, “captive” isn’t a data quality grade, so it would have to be used in a different category and I think there are already plenty of filters there. So I’m going to close this request.
