Access to pictures sent from the app - eBMS website

[CrisSevilleja]

Hello, one of the coordinators asked me how the pictures sent from the app to the website (in a transect, 15min counts, or moth traps) can be accessed by the user. I know verifiers can see the pictures on the verification page and also on the Explore online data page https://butterfly-monitoring.net/elastic/all-records selecting the thumbnail option.

However, there is no place where users can see their own pictures altogether, by species order or something nicer for users. I discussed this time ago with moth recorders and we need a page or function to provide users their own data in a better way. I tried on my samples page https://butterfly-monitoring.net/mydata/samples to select the option Media to show pictures and it is loading and not showing the pictures, it got stuck loading.

Any ideas or comments? @JimBacon @DavidRoy @chrisvanswaay @kazlauskis

We have accessed images (and all other data) from the FIT counts using the API so it is accessible.

@JimBacon since I tried to include the Media field on my Samples page https://butterfly-monitoring.net/mydata/samples is stuck and I cannot see my records, it is all time loading... No hurry to fix it, just have a look at it. thanks

On the page https://butterfly-monitoring.net/mydata/samples there are 3 tabs below the map for Samples, Records and Species.

I think you chose the option to see Occurrence Media on the Samples tab which then gets stuck all the time trying to load (until you remove the cookie called cols-samples-grids from your browser). An option to show Sample Media would be useful - Occurrence Media is clearly not helpful.

On the other hand, if you go to the Records tab and choose to add a column for Occurrence Media, this achieves what you want.

Where there is Sample Media, you can see it by viewing sample details, e.g. https://butterfly-monitoring.net/mydata/samples/details?sample_id=23841775
