Topic: EasyMaps absence records problem
Hi
Compare the EasyMap for Wakame with the Atlas map.
The EasyMap shows more records.
Selecting an area on the Atlas map where the EasyMap shows records but the Atlas map is blank, e.g. Tyneside, finds records such as https://records.nbnatlas.org/occurrence … c4c68edf61
This is an absence record.
My conclusion is that the EasyMap does not distinguish between presence and absence records and therefore gives a false impression of distribution.
