Length estimates missing from Sharkbook data export

I just tried to export Mozambique whale sharks for a quick length data analysis using the following URL:

https://www.sharkbook.ai/encounters/exportSearchResults.jsp?locationCodeField=Mozambique&locationCodeField=Guinjata&locationCodeField=Bazaruto&locationCodeField=Morrungulo&locationCodeField=Pomene&locationCodeField=San+Sebastian&locationCodeField=Tofo&locationCodeField=Amazon&locationCodeField=Giants+Castle&locationCodeField=Hospital&locationCodeField=Manta+Reef&locationCodeField=Office&locationCodeField=Reggies&locationCodeField=Zavora&male=male&female=female&unknown=unknown&genusField=Rhincodon+typus&alive=alive&dead=dead&numSearchedObs=1&lifeStageField=None&measurementlength(operator)=gteq&measurementtemperature(operator)=gteq&label0=None&numResights=1&satelliteTagName=None&biomeasurement13C(operator)=gteq&biomeasurement15N(operator)=gteq&biomeasurement34S(operator)=gteq&alleleRelaxValue=0&state=approved&organizationId=None&projectId=None&submitSearch=Search+Encounters

However, there are no lengths in the Excel data file after 2011, if I use “Exported Excel spreadsheet (.xls) file in OBIS format”, and no length column at all if I click “Standard Format Export”. This is an error – we have reported lengths for these sharks.

Thanks!
Simon.

Thanks, @simonjpierce

We’ll need more time to look into this. I suspect it’s related to this ticket: Length data export doesn't always work · Issue #266 · WildMeOrg/Wildbook · GitHub

Hi @simonjpierce

We have a temporary fix in place so that you can download your data via a Standard export. We’re still working on a long-term fix but this should allow you to get the measurement data in your export. Can you try it again and let me know if you’re still having any issues?
