Values are unique within the study. If the data owner does not provide an Animal ID, an internal Movebank animal identifier is sometimes shown. example: TUSC_CV5 units: none entity described: individual same as: individual local identifier URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000016 animal life stage: The age class or life stage of the animal at the beginning of the deployment. Can be years or months of age or terms such as 'adult', 'subadult' and 'juvenile'. Best practice is to define units in the values if needed (e.g. '2 years'). example: juvenile, adult units: none entity described: deployment URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000018 animal sex: The sex of the animal. Allowed values are m = male; f = female; u = unknown. format: controlled list entity described: individual URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000023 animal taxon: The scientific name of the species on which the tag was deployed, as defined by the Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS, www.itis.gov). If the species name can not be provided, this should be the lowest level taxonomic rank that can be determined and that is used in the ITIS taxonomy. Additional information can be provided using the term 'taxon detail'. format: controlled list entity described: individual same as: individual taxon canonical name URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000024 deploy off timestamp: The timestamp when the tag deployment ended. Data records recorded after this day and time are not associated with the animal related to the deployment. Values are typically defined by the data owner, and in some cases are created automatically during data import. Further information can be provided in 'deployment end type' and 'deployment end comments'. example: 2009-10-01 12:00:00.000 format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS units: UTC or GPS time entity described: deployment same as: deploy off date URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000077 deploy on timestamp: The timestamp when the tag deployment started. Data records recorded before this day and time are not associated with the animal related to the deployment. Values are typically defined by the data owner, and in some cases are created automatically during data import. example: 2008-08-30 18:00:00.000 format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS units: UTC or GPS time entity described: deployment same as: deploy on date URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000081 deployment end type: A categorical classification describing the end of the tag deployment on the animal. Best practice is to clarify how the 'deploy-off timestamp', if present, was chosen. Values are chosen from a controlled list: analysis-end = the end time represents the end of the period of interest; captured = The tag remained on the animal but the animal was captured or confined; dead = The deployment ended with the death of the animal that was carrying the tag; dead/fall-off = The tag stopped moving, and it is not possible to determine whether it is due to death of the animal or unscheduled tag detachment; equipment-failure = The tag stopped working; fall-off = The attachment of the tag to the animal failed, and it fell of accidentally; other = other; released = The tag remained on the animal but the animal was released from captivity or confinement; removal = The tag was purposefully removed from the animal; scheduled-detachment = The tag was programmed to detach from the animal; transmission-end = The tag stopped transmitting usable data; unknown = The cause of the end of data availability or transmission is unknown. format: controlled list entity described: deployment URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000084 deployment ID: A unique identifier for the deployment of a tag on animal, provided by the data owner. If the data owner does not provide a Deployment ID, an internal Movebank deployment identifier may sometimes be shown. example: Jane-Tag42 units: none entity described: deployment URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000085 event ID: An identifier for the set of values associated with each event, i.e. sensor measurement. A unique event ID is assigned to every time-location or other time-measurement record in Movebank. If multiple measurements are included within a single row of a data file, they will share an event ID. If users import the same sensor measurement to Movebank multiple times, a separate event ID will be assigned to each. example: 6340565 units: none entity described: event URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000103 location lat: The geographic latitude of the location as estimated by the sensor. example: -41.0982423 units: decimal degrees, WGS84 reference system entity described: event URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000145 location long: The geographic longitude of the location as estimated by the sensor. Positive values are east of the Greenwich Meridian, negative values are west of it. example: -121.1761111 units: decimal degrees, WGS84 reference system entity described: event URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000146 manipulation type: The way in which the animal was manipulated during the deployment. Additional information can be provided using 'manipulation comments'. Values are chosen from a controlled list: confined = The animal's movement was restricted to within a defined area; domesticated = The animal is domesticated, for example, is a house pet or part of a managed herd; manipulated-other = The animal was manipulated in some other way, such as a physiological manipulation; none = The animal received no treatment other than tag attachment and related measurements and sampling (if applicable); reintroduction = The animal has been reintroduced as part of wildlife conservation or management efforts; relocated = The animal was released from a site other than the one at which it was captured. format: controlled list entity described: deployment URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000155 sensor type: The type of sensor with which data were collected. All sensors are associated with a tag id, and tags can contain multiple sensor types. Each event record in Movebank is assigned one sensor type. If values from multiple sensors are reported in a single event, the primary sensor is used. Values are chosen from a controlled list: acceleration = The sensor collects acceleration data; accessory measurements = The sensor collects accessory measurements, such as battery voltage; acoustic telemetry = The sensor transmits an acoustic signal that is detected by receivers to determine location; Argos Doppler shift = The sensor location is estimated by Argos using Doppler shift; barometer = The sensor records air or water pressure; bird ring = The animal is identified by a band or ring that has a unique identifier; GPS = The sensor uses GPS to determine location; gyroscope = The sensor records angular velocity; heart rate = The sensor records or is used to calculate heart rate; magnetometer = The sensor records the magnetic field; natural mark = The animal is identified by a unique natural marking; orientation = Quaternion components describing the orientation of the tag are derived from accelerometer and gyroscope measurements; radio transmitter = The sensor transmits a radio signal that is detected by receivers to determine location; Sigfox geolocation = The sensor location is determined by Sigfox using the received signal strength indicator; solar geolocator = The sensor collects light levels, which are used to determine position (for processed locations); solar geolocator raw = The sensor collects light levels, which are used to determine position (for raw light-level measurements); solar geolocator twilight = The sensor collects light levels, which are used to determine position (for twilights calculated from light-level measurements). format: controlled list entity described: event URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000170 study name: The name of the study in Movebank. example: Coyotes, Kays and Bogan, Albany NY units: none entity described: study URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000173 tag ID: An identifier for the tag, provided by the data owner. Values are unique within the study. If the data owner does not provide a tag ID, an internal Movebank tag identifier may sometimes be shown. example: 2342 units: none entity described: tag same as: tag local identifier URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000181 tag manufacturer name: The company or person that produced the tag. example: Holohil units: none entity described: tag same as: manufacturer name URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000183 tag mass: The mass of the tag. example: 24 units: grams entity described: tag same as: weight URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000184 tag model: The model of the tag. example: T61 units: none entity described: tag URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000185 tag readout method: The way the data are received from the tag. Values are chosen from a controlled list: ISS = Data are transferred via the International Space Station; LPWAN = Data are transferred through a low-power wide-area network, such as LoRa or Sigfox; multiple = Data are acquired using multiple methods; none = Data are obtained without use of an animal-borne tag, such as by observing a unique marking; other-wireless = Data are transferred via another form of wireless data transfer, such as a VHF transmitter/receiver; phone-network = Data are transferred via a phone network, such as GSM or AMPS; satellite = Data are transferred via satellite; tag-retrieval = The tag must be physically retrieved in order to obtain the data; telemetry-network = Data are obtained through a radio or acoustic telemetry network; Wi-Fi/Bluetooth = Data are transferred via a local Wi-Fi or Bluetooth system. format: controlled list entity described: deployment URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000188 timestamp: The date and time corresponding to a sensor measurement or an estimate derived from sensor measurements. example: 2008-08-14 18:31:00.000 format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS units: UTC or GPS time entity described: event URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000200 visible: Determines whether an event is visible on the Movebank map. Values are calculated automatically, with TRUE indicating the event has not been flagged as an outlier by 'algorithm marked outlier', 'import marked outlier' or 'manually marked outlier', or that the user has overridden the results of these outlier attributes using 'manually marked valid' = TRUE. Allowed values are TRUE or FALSE. units: none entity described: event URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/MVB/current/MVB000209 ----------- More Information For more information about this repository, see www.movebank.org/cms/movebank-content/data-repository, the FAQ at https://www.datarepository.movebank.org/faq, or contact us at support@movebank.org.
