This identifier can be a ring number, a name, the same as the associated tag ID, etc. If the data owner does not provide an Animal ID, an internal Movebank animal identifier is sometimes shown. example: 91876A, Gary same as: individual local identifier 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: not defined animal reproductive condition: The reproductive condition of the animal at the beginning of the deployment. example: non-reproductive, pregnant animal sex: The sex of the animal. Allowed values are m: male f: female 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". example: Buteo swainsoni same as: species, individual taxon canonical name attachment type: The way a tag is attached to an animal. Values are chosen from a controlled list: collar: The tag is attached by a collar around the animal's neck. glue: The tag is attached to the animal using glue. harness: The tag is attached to the animal using a harness. implant: The tag is placed under the skin of the an animal. tape: The tag is attached to the animal using tape. other: user specified data processing software: Name of the software program/s, scripts, etc. used to process raw sensor data and derive location estimates. example: BASTrack deploy off latitude: The geographic latitude of the location where the deployment ended (intended primarily for instances in which the animal release and tag retrieval locations have higher accuracy than those derived from sensor data). example: -38.6866 units: decimal degrees, WGS84 reference system deploy off longitude: The geographic longitude of the location where the deployment ended (intended primarily for instances in which the animal release and tag retrieval locations have higher accuracy than those derived from sensor data). example: 146.3104 units: decimal degrees, WGS84 reference system deploy off timestamp: The timestamp when the tag deployment ended. example: 2009-10-01 12:00:00.000 format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.sss units: UTC or GPS time, which is a few leap seconds different from UTC same as: deploy off date deploy on latitude: The geographic latitude of the location where the animal was released (intended primarily for instances in which the animal release and tag retrieval locations have higher accuracy than those derived from sensor data). example: 27.3516 units: decimal degrees, WGS84 reference system deploy on longitude: The geographic longitude of the location where the animal was released (intended primarily for instances in which the animal release and tag retrieval locations have higher accuracy than those derived from sensor data). example: -97.3321 units: decimal degrees, WGS84 reference system deploy on timestamp: The timestamp when the tag deployment started. example: 2008-08-30 18:00:00.000 format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.sss units: UTC or GPS time, which is a few leap seconds different from UTC same as: deploy on date deployment comments: Additional information about the tag deployment that is not described by other reference data terms. example: body length 154 cm; condition good deployment end type: A categorical classification of the tag deployment end. Values are chosen from a controlled list: 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. equipment failure: The tag stopped working. fall off: The attachment of the tag to the animal failed, and it fell of accidentally. 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. unknown: The deployment ended by an unknown cause. 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 duty cycle: Remarks associated with the duty cycle of a tag during the deployment, describing the times it is on/off and the frequency at which it transmits or records data. Units and time zones should be defined in the remarks. example: 15-min fixes from 8:00-18:00 local time (0:00-10:00 UTC) end timestamp: The date and time when the sampling interval or burst ended. example: 2011-01-03 13:45:00.000 format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.sss units: UTC or GPS time, which is a few leap seconds different from UTC 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 geolocator calibration: A description of how solar geolocators were calibrated. Best practice is to refer to a publication and/or analysis software/parameters used. example: on-animal calibration over a two-week period in the breeding site; see Jameson et al. (2011) geolocator fix type: The period of day (or a value indicating the period of day) used to estimate location by geolocation. example: sunrise units: none THIS DATASET: Values come from the R package GeoLight: either 1 or 2 depending on whether the start timestamp is sunrise (1) or sunset (2). See https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/GeoLight. geolocator rise: The period of day used to estimate location by geolocation. TRUE = sunrise, FALSE = sunset. geolocator light threshold: The light threshold used for location estimation with solar geolocators. example: 16 units: not defined geolocator sun elevation angle: The sun elevation angle used for location estimation with solar geolocators. example: -2.86 units: degrees geolocator twilight3: The date and time of twilight detected by automated processing. example: 2008-08-14 18:31:00.000 format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.sss units: UTC or GPS time, which is a few leap seconds different from UTC location lat: 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 THIS DATASET: Values of 0.001 occur during equinoxes when latitude cannot be estimated and should be interpreted as null values. 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 same as: location long light level: Light-level values measured by a solar geolocator. Best practice is to define values in the reference data. example: 28 units: not defined same as: gls:light level manipulation type: The way in which the animal was manipulated during the deployment. Additional details about the manipulation 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. none: The animal received no treatment other than the tag attachment. relocated: The animal was released from a site other than the one at which it was captured. manipulated other: The animal was manipulated in some other way, such as a physiological manipulation. migration stage custom: The migration stage of the animal. Values are specific to the study. To use a controlled list of migration stages that can be compared across studies, use migration stage standard. example: Stopover #1d same as: migration stage THIS DATASET: Values indicate estimated site: 0 = migration, 1 = breeding site, 2 = Balkan staging site, 3 = Sahel staging site in autumn, 4 = southern Africa staging site, 5 = Sahel staging site in spring. 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.

Argos Doppler shift: The sensor is using Argos Doppler shift for determining position. barometer: The sensor records air or water pressure. bird ring: The animal is identified by a ring that has a unique ID. GPS: The sensor uses GPS to find location and stores these. magnetometer: The sensor records the magnetic field. natural mark: The animal is identified by a natural marking. radio transmitter: The sensor is a classical radio transmitter. 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). start timestamp: The date and time when the sampling interval or burst began. example: 2011-01-03 13:45:00.000 format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.sss units: UTC or GPS time, which is a few leap seconds different from UTC study name: The name of the study in Movebank. study site: A location such as the deployment site or colony, or a location-related group such as the herd or pack name. example: Pickerel Island North tag ID: A unique identifier for the tag, provided by the data owner. If the data owner does not provide a tag ID, an internal Movebank tag identifier may sometimes be shown. example: 2342 same as: tag local identifier tag manufacturer name: The company or person that produced the tag. example: Holohil tag mass: The mass of the tag. example: 24 units: grams tag model: The model of the tag. example: T61 tag readout method: The way the data are received from the tag. Values are chosen from a controlled list: satellite: Data are transferred via satellite. phone network: Data are transferred via a phone network, such as GSM or AMPS. other wireless: Data are transferred via another form of wireless data transfer, such as a VHF radio transmitter/receiver. tag retrieval: The tag must be physically retrieved in order to obtain the data. timestamp: The date and time a sensor measurement was taken. example: 2008-08-14 18:31:00.000 format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.sss units: UTC or GPS time, which is a few leap seconds different from UTC twilight excluded: Whether a twilight identified by automated processing was excluded from subsequent analysis. Allowed values are TRUE or FALSE. twilight inserted: Whether a twilight was inserted for a time when automated processing did not identify a twilight. Allowed values are TRUE or FALSE. visible: Determines whether an event is visible on the Movebank Search 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. ----------- Migrate Technology Geolocator Settings ***************************************************** Migrate Technology Ltd logger Type: 3.12.4, current settings: Approx 0.5'C resolution.
