Revisiting this, PLEASE create some sort of live map service, generic WMS/WFS or Esri service format for iNaturalist data, it would be particularly useful in ArcGIS Online - if you look in ArcGIS Online now, there’s many static copies of iNaturalist data, but having a live feed would meet so many purposes and align with current service-oriented GIS development architectures… thanks.
