Using the Roadkill Reporter app
To make a roadkill report, fill in the report form – contact name and number are optional.
Date, time and location can be changed if you want to make a report later once you have reached your destination.
To make a report away from the site of the roadkill, touch the map in the report to bring the map up into full-screen mode, move the map around by touching and dragging on the screen until the cursor sits at the appropriate place on the map for where the roadkill was seen.
If you stopped to make your report and took a photo, upload the photo of the animal.
IMPORTANT: please only take a photo if it is safe to do so.
If you are unsure about the type of animal, click on the Roadkill Species Guide in the report form or see it on our website.
After you complete the report form, select the tick in the bottom right corner.
The Survey Completed message will appear, with three options:
- Send now - if your device is in range and online;
- Continue this survey - if you want to edit your report; or
- Save in outbox - if you are offline. When you are back in range or online you can then go to the outbox and submit your surveys.
Once submitted the Sent icon will show a number that indicates the number of surveys sent.
All subsequent reports
The next time you open the Survey123 app you will select the “Continue without signing in” option but you will now see the Tasmanian Roadkill Reporter survey icon.
Click on it to submit more reports.
Click “Collect” at the bottom of the screen to begin making your report
