Description

This guide details how to set up an integration between data providers to Movebank, via Gundi.

Scope

Wildlife movement data (location and tag id).

Prerequisites 

• In Gundi's older portal, you need an inbound configuration set up for the data provider. The prerequisites for each technology may vary.
• Movebank username(s), case-sensitive.

Configurations

Step 1: Configurations in Gundi

1.1 Add a new Outbound Integration 
Type Movebank
Owner Select the name of the organization that owns the data.
Name Any name that can help find this configuration when searching for keywords.
State Don't change.
Endpoint   https://www.movebank.org
Login/Password  Leave empty.
Token Leave empty.
Additional

{
   "broker": "gcp_pubsub",
   "feed": "gundi/earthranger",
    "permissions": {
        "default_movebank_usernames": ["username1","username2", ...],
        "study": "gundi"
    },
    "topic": "destination-movebank-prod"
}

Replace username1 with the actual Movebank username.

1.2 Edit the Device Group
Edit the device groups created for the inbound configuration, selecting the outbound configuration you created in the step 1.1.

Limitations

Sensor data, such as speed, is not currently transmitted to Movebank through this integration.

Future Plans

The integration will soon be configurable through a new portal.

Support for transferring additional sensor data, such as speed, is planned for the near future.

Notes

Contact Support to request integration assistance.

Once the integration is established, use Movebank to create or edit a study and include the tags by navigating to Live Feeds and selecting “Gundi/EarthRanger.”
