What Wildbook are you working in?
ARW
What is the entire URL out of the browser, exactly where the error occurred?
No URL. Issue arises during data analysis after export.
Can you describe what the issue is you’re experiencing?
There is a discrepancy between the capture histories and the raw Encounter table.
Mismatch between capture history recaptures and Encounter records: no repeated individuals detected via catalog numbers and timestamps
Can you provide steps on how to reproduce what you’re experiencing?
In my exported dataset, are 4,553 encounters recorded and exported. 4,332 with a complete capturehistory of 38 numbers. When i analyse the capture histories and count the “1”: 3,516 fire salamanders were captured once, 473 individuals were captured twice, 187 individuals were captured three times, 54 individuals were captured four times, 76 individuals were captured five times, 19 individuals were captured six times, 7 individuals were captured seven times. This suggests 5,782 total encounters.
However, when I checked the exported Encounter table using R, grouping by Encounter.catalogNumber and Encounter.dateInMilliseconds, I found that there are no repeated observations at all.
thank you in advance for your help!
Felix.
