RG observation does not appear on the map of the species
no bug here; that observation doesn’t appear on the main map as the accuracy value is too large, and is considered ‘unmappable’ by iNat:
to be considered ‘mappable’, the accuracy value must not exceed the diagonal length of a 0.2 degree x 0.2 degree box at that latitude (so the threshold for ‘mappable’ changes depending on distance from the equator
Thanks a lot.
for anyone wondering, that would be d = 0.2*111.32*sqrt(1 + cos(lat_deg)^2) and here is a plot
so that point would have gotten mapped if its atmost 30.4km accurate i guess and better stay within 20km radius if you are manually picking.
