In this case, this is all dry farmed wheat so we'd say cropland. "Cropland" would actually be this stuff off to our sides here. "Suburb" then is same idea but less dense construction. So we have "undefined" which is a default which means I don't know or you don't know or you don't have time to care. Then the "surroundings" represent what is immediately to the side. If there was some type of divider, a - you know, line of trees, something of that - something of that nature in the - in the middle and I could only see my half of the lanes - in my case that would be one lane, then I hit the "Half" button and that tells us that we're really only sensing half the road. There's a tractor on that side coming towards us and now he's passing us and so, yes, I can see the - the visibility is - is all. In this case, I can see the entirety of the road. The next question is "lane visibility." What that means is, on this path, could you see the entirety of the road. In this case, our road has two lanes so I put two. "Lanes" represents how many lanes in total. The "max speed" would be the fastest speed limit on the segment of the road where the individual was killed. "Segment" refers to how many, you know - are you - you're driving the whole road, are you driving as a few miles. But if you do have a little bit more time and you can give us some more information, that is very helpful to us. If you don't understand what these mean, if you're not sure, don't worry about it. It's defaulted to be nothing, to have no value. That photo menu and this stuff here is the same no matter what you do if you drop a pin, if you are doing a transect, et cetera. And you can take it directly from our app or you can have taken one previously and upload it from your iPhone library or it's perfectly simple to use no photo and just hit "no photo" and go on. If it's in a safe place - only if it's in an extremely safe place and - and you have a desire to do so, you may take a photo. Say it's a wolf, w-o-l-f - oh, nothing because I'm in the small. You can either scroll if you want to find the species you're looking or you can just click right here on the - the window and you can begin tagging. You can select medium, large, whatever, and it's gonna automatically toggle - I've - I've gone through and I've scored all of our species into one of those size classes. And then things like coyotes, wolves, deer, those fall into the large size things. Every organism falls into either the small category, the medium category, or the large category based on size with small being squirrel size-ish. You can also - all the organisms are categorized that way. So we break it down, though, into unknown small, unknown medium, and unknown large. Now because we're driving and we're not necessarily going to stop every time or it might not be safe to stop or the individual might just be smooshed - heavily smooshed, unknown is a very common category for us. > That's going to take us into a toggle menu. Otherwise, we just go until we see a kill and we just hit "Record a kill." If we don't see anything, we - when we get to our destination or when we're tired of this, we just hit the stop button right here in the upper, right corner. Keep your eyes on the road and all your safe stuff and pass tractors safely like that and everything. You hit "Transect" and you just hit the "Start tracking" and go about whatever you're doing. And I hope that you mostly use the transect option. You can use a map interface to drop a pin. "From the map" is an option that you can take after you get home and you know where the - you recall at a particular intersection you saw a dead animal. You can hit "Current Location" which essentially is going to GPS mark your - wherever you are at the - at the moment that you push the screen. Once you activate the app, you have three options. It's much harder to see and it's much more easy to get distracted and all that kind of stuff so we only do road kill surveys in the daytime. I - I don't want you guys collecting data at night. My - my able assistant is driving so I'm not doing anything unsafe.

You can hit "About us" to learn about the project and learn about how to collect data or you can just go directly to "Collect Data." Now note I'm not driving. If you're interested in participating, you can use our new app - our Splatter Spotter app which is free. We're doing - we're interested in doing a road kill survey. We're between Kars and Lake Kuyucuk, our RAMSAR site. ^M00:00:12 > We're out here in eastern Turkey at one of my research sites.
