EcoAcoustics Search Results Display
Search results for EcoAcoustics are listed on the Search page. Whilst users can search in either Data View or Map View, result details are shown in Data View.
The Data View of results allows users to select both the number of results displayed on the page, as well as how these are sorted. The default view is for 50 records per page, sorted by Relevance. Other options include 75, 100 or 125 results per page, with sorting options of via Relevance, Date Collected or Pulse Count. Both Date Collected and Pulse Count can be sorted in either Ascending (oldest to newest/lowest to highest) or Descending (newest to oldest/highest to lowest) order.
Once users have selected their preferred display, they can navigate between different pages of results using the next, previous, first or last page buttons at the bottom of the screen.
Note the pagination bar will disappear from view if not used. Scrolling down the page will make it reappear.
Users can also open or close a map preview of their results from within the pagination bar. This allows users to see an approximate location of where the recordings in their results were taken, without having to change to the Map View.
Individual Record Display
Results are displayed in a tabular format, with columns for Country, Site, Species, File Type, Record Context and ID Method. The play and download symbols in each result row are clickable. If a user selects the play button, the record will expand and if they are signed in, they will be able to choose to play the record. If the user selects the download button, they will be redirected to the log in page, or, if they are already signed in, the record will download.
From within a result, users can either select the download button to download the recording or the play button
. Users can select the playback speed for the file by clicking the Actions menu next to the sound button.
Note that for many bat calls, playing the audio file will not generate any perceptible sound, as calls for many species are at frequencies beyond the range of human hearing.
