Dear Marmam, would you please post the message below :

Dears MARMAMers,

Our NGO Souffleurs d’Ecume is a partner of the GIS3M (Group of Scientific Interest for Mediterranean Marine Mammals). The GIS3M is currently leading a project to highlight data of opportunistic cetaceans sighting in the Pelagos Sanctuary (Mediterranean Sea). The aim of this study is to develop an online platform dedicated to the entry, storage and analysis of data from a network of opportunistic observers. In this context, we are looking for some examples or an experience feedback from any structure which developed such tools to use and/or analyse opportunistically-collected data on any species. We are also investigating advantages and disadvantages related to the development of a dedicated tool dealing with this kind of data.

We would be very grateful if you could provide us with any information or advice you may have on this topic. Thank you in advance for your help.

Best regards,

Anissa Belhadjer
