Batch Edit for Land Trust Location?

I have an iPod that only records locations when it detects a WIFI signal. Consequently, many of my observations have locations listed as outside the land trust boundary that I am trying to inventory. Is there a way to batch edit these to put them inside the bounds of land trust? Locations don’t need to be exact. I have probably 300 entries so doing them individually is a pain. Being able to highlight observations from a map view would be ideal.

Thanks for any help you can offer !

Batch editing is available at https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/jamien You can use the search function to narrow down your observations, then click “Batch edit” and select the observations you want to edit. Then click “Edit selected”.

I must be doing something wrong. Even when I search with the place noted as North America, no records are returned.

I am looking for observations within Cape Elizabeth, ME

Thanks for your help.

Can you share a link to your search for North American observations that didn’t return any records?

Here is one for Cumberland County with quite a few results. Note that you can zoom in on the map and redo your search area to refine it. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/jamien?utf8=✓&q=&search_on=&quality_grade=any&reviewed=&identifications=any&captive=&place_id=2004&swlat=&swlng=&nelat=&nelng=&taxon_name=&taxon_id=&day=&month=&year=&order_by=observations.id&order=desc&rank=&hrank=&lrank=&taxon_ids[]=&d1=&d2=&created_on=&site=&tdate=&list_id=&filters_open=true&view=map

I believe this is what you are asking.

If I search here, I get over 500 observations but I cannot batch edit from here, can I?

OK, not sure what I did differently, but now it’s working. Thanks for the tip about using the map to guide searches - that’s very helpful.
