Trends Tab Documentation

Overview

The Trends Tab provides a comprehensive analysis of population dynamics at different geographical levels, offering valuable insights into demographic shifts and trends. This tab is designed to assist users in understanding the evolving landscape of population distribution across various strata.

DISCLAIMER: Some of the images in the manual may vary slightly from what you see on the platform due to continuous updates to the platform. On the platform you will see green question mark buttons in the top right corner (underneath the LOGOUT button), you can click on these to access the help desk.

If there is less than 2 years of data for a particular species, the system will not generate trend charts for that species. Please keep in mind that if the user has recently added species information, it may not be immediately reflected in the trends tab. However, the data will be instantly available on all other tabs.

This delay occurs because the system updates trend charts every hour. So, the user might experience a short wait before the trends tab shows the latest information. We appreciate your understanding and patience in this matter. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to our support team. Thank you for using our platform!
