The Coverage map shows the project coverage on a pentad scale. To view a more detailed summary of an area, open the relevant areas coverage map from the top menu.
To view the pentad information, click on the pentad, to open a pentad summary, double click.
Pentad:
A 5 minute x 5 minute coordinate
grid super-imposed over the continent for spatial reference.

This data can be uploaded/linked directly into any GIS software which supports geoJSON protocols, such as QGIS. More information on geoJSON can be found at http://geojson.org.
Add a geoJSON Vector layer to you project, pointing to the following link: https://api.birdmap.africa/sabap2/v2/coverage/group/15278_BEKZN_CMGE21?format=geoJSON
Please note that geoJSON files are mostly used by users of GIS software who want to do further analyses. For most users the coverage maps on the website will be sufficient, for example you can zoom in to see the specific pentad information. However, if you want to analyse the data in more detail follow these steps. First install a GIS programme such as QGIS (it is free). You will then have to download the species's geoJSON file under the species maps in the Downloads tab (for example https://api.birdmap.africa/sabap2/v2/coverage/group/15278_BEKZN_CMGE21?format=geoJSON for this maps data). The following short tutorial will then explain to you how to load the map into QGIS using the URL of the geoJSON page - Click here
