說明

The India Roadkill Monitoring Project (www.roadkillmonitoring.in) is a collaborative effort between conservationists, researchers, and the common public. Its primary goal is to fill the "information gap" regarding animal-vehicle collisions in India, where data has historically focused almost exclusively on human casualties. The dataset addresses a critical gap in understanding the scale and distribution of animal-vehicle collisions in India, where road infrastructure often overlaps with ecologically sensitive landscapes.This dataset compiles georeferenced records of wildlife road mortality across India, generated through the India Roadkill Monitoring Project’s mobile app. Data collection follows a hybrid monitoring framework. Citizen science contributions enable large-scale spatial coverage, while systematic surveys conducted by trained observers provide more standardized data on roadkill occurrence. All records undergo quality control procedures, including taxonomic validation, geospatial verification, and data cleaning. The dataset is standardized using Darwin Core terms to ensure interoperability and integration with global biodiversity platforms.Roadkill represents a significant but underreported source of biodiversity loss, affecting a wide range of taxa. This dataset includes records of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, collected across diverse habitats such as forests, agricultural lands, wetlands, and urban environments. Each record typically contains species identification (to the lowest possible taxonomic level), geographic coordinates, date of observation, and supporting metadata, including photographs where available.The dataset enables the identification of spatial hotspots of road mortality, temporal patterns in wildlife-vehicle collisions, and species-specific vulnerability. These insights are essential for mitigation strategies such as wildlife crossings, road planning, and traffic regulation measures.Although the dataset may exhibit spatial and temporal biases inherent to citizen science approaches, it represents one of the most comprehensive efforts to document roadkill in India. By contributing to global biodiversity databases, it supports comparative analyses in road ecology and provides a valuable resource for conservation planning, ecological research, and infrastructure management.
