Observation has photo but shows up under "Observations w/o Media" on map

[pisum]

@rupertclayton

If an observation has a photo and isn’t captive/cultivated, but is non-verifiable for some other reason (e.g. no date), would that appear in any layer of the map

@tiwane

I’d recommend making a test observation and trying it out.

there’s no need for test observations. there are lots of actual observations that get left off those 3 layers.

here’s an example of an observation that is casual because it’s marked as “as good as it can be” at the family level (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/13311979):

note the location of the observation above, and note that it’s not on the taxon map for Calliphoridae (https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/61860-Calliphoridae), even when all 3 layers are selected:

i think the question that ruperclayton was asking was somewhat rhetorical. i think what he’s really getting at is: Is it acceptable for the taxon map to provide no way to display certain casual observations?
