0:01 If you go to https://riverflydata.org, you'll find this, the Riverfly data dashboard.
0:07 It's an interactive page where you can generate charts for specific sites, rivers, catchments or teams over any time frame.
0:16 I'll just quickly show you how it works now.
0:19 So the default when you open it is showing the entire UK over the last 12 months.
0:24 But you can use these boxes at the top to philtre the data being shown.
0:28 So when you type in here, it'll come up with various options with these letters next to them.
0:33 The S means that's a sight, C means that's a catchment, T means that's a team, and R means that's a river.
0:41 And with this one, you can click on specific months to cover those specific months.
0:48 Or you can use these options at the top, so say 2 years.
0:53 And as well as selecting things through this drop down, you can also just zoom in on things on the map and select them like this.
1:08 So now I've got this site selected over the last two years.
1:12 So that's been 20 samples and there have been zero trigger level breaches in that time.
1:17 And then these charts just summarise the information about that site.
1:23 So you can see here what the river catchment and team is.
1:26 And then here you can see the average RMI score has been 6.
1:30 Looks like at this point the trigger level got changed to 7, whereas it used to just be 0.
1:38 And the these are the scores that each survey has got each month over that time, showing how much of those was each specific invertebrate.
1:50 And you can click on things up here to make them appear and disappear in the graph.
1:56 You can do that in all of those.
1:57 So the count distribution this is showing.
2:02 So about 50% was freshwater shrimp, 50% were olives.
2:07 In this count, you can see the relative proportions of each type of invertebrates.
2:14 You can rule things out to see things a bit more detail if you like, like so.
2:20 And then these charts show the separated out different invertebrate groups and how they've changed over the months.
2:31 And you can do that for any site or you can do it for an entire team or an entire river or an entire catchment.
2:38 And if you'd like to sort of generate a report using this information, this printer button up here, you can use that to print, but you can also use it just to save as PDF.
2:50 You can see instead of selecting a printer, just save as PDF and then it'll make you a handy level summary reports using those charts that get automatically generated.
3:00 So that's how to use the data dashboard.
3:03 And then if you want to browse the data in more detail than this, you can use Cartographer itself.
3:09 And anyone can get an account on Cartographer.
3:12 So if you need to look at the data in more depth or download the data, you just get a cartographer to sign up via our website and view the data using that.
3:25 And I've got another video summarising how to explore the data on there.
3:31 I hope that helped.
