The creator zooms into a high-observation area on iNaturalist, draws a rectangular boundary, applies filters (for example excluding mystery species like protozoa and focusing on birds, amphibians, reptiles, plants, and mammals), and downloads an export with a manageable dataset size (around 5,000 observations). In Excel, they turn the export into a table, delete unneeded columns, and remove duplicate species to produce a clean species list, then import it into Landscape using the Landscape CSV template while setting the external ID to the iNaturalist taxon ID. They also note that external ID can be used to update species entries in future imports."}
