Rare birds & confidential data 92 What are the arrangements for information about sensitives species ?
In conjunction with the British and Irish Rare Bird Breeding Panel, the Bird Atlas team has developed a protocol for how accurately to map records of confidential species. Basically we will only map certain species at coarse scales so as not to give away the precise breeding location. Some species will not be mapped under any circumstances. Any more precise information provided for the Bird Atlas project will remain confidential.
