Make it easier to find records with certain characteristics

[MortenHofft]

One of the first mocks for the hosted portal was to have filtering for "fitness". But so far hasn't progressed it.

We have called it many things, such as Fitness for use, quality, issues and flags, but the idea is the same: giving users a type of filters to find the records the look for in terms of the type of data and quality/attributes of the data. From what I understand it is things like:

• is sequenced
• is eDNA
• is citizen science
• is sampling data
• is tracking data
• has images
• gridded data
• and all our issue flags, but probably as excludes (e.g. exclude records with date issues)

Is this still interesting and is it worth prioritising?
And if so what kind of filters/profiles would be intersting?

It turns out that this is actively being discussed on other contexts currently. I'll close this issue as the discussion is taking place.
