The new API is currently planned to be released in May 2025. Please come back to this webpage for updates. If you have any questions or feedback, please email [wildnet@des.qld.gov.au](mailto:wildnet@des.qld.gov.au)\r\n\r\nThis API accesses data from QLD Government's [WildNet database](https://www.qld.gov.au/environment/plants-animals/species-information/wildnet) that has been approved for public release. There are a number of functions that retrieve species names, profiles, notes, statuses, images, species survey locations and project information. \r\n\r\nPlease see [https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species](https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/) for more information on using the API functions. \r\n\r\nData can be retrieved in 3 different formats by adding the format variable to the end of the url (e.g. **&f=xml**). The default format is json if the **f** (format) variable is omitted. \r\nE.g. \r\n- **JSON:** https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getkingdomnames&f=json \r\n- **XML:** https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getkingdomnames&f=xml \r\n- **CSV:** https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getkingdomnames&f=csv \r\n \r\nWhen spatial locations are returned, GeoJSON or KML will be used when requesting the json and xml formats. \r\n\r\n[Species profile search](https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species-search/) can be used to locate species information (by name or a taxonomy search). It uses the Get species by ID function to display species profiles with images and maps and uses the Get surveys by species function for downloading data.\r\n\r\n[Biomaps](https://apps.information.qld.gov.au/Storymaps/Biomaps/) provides a map interface to display the WildNet records approved for publication with other spatial layers (such as cadastre, protected areas, vegetation and biodiversity value mapping). A range of WildNet species list reports based on all WildNet records and other environmental reports can be requested for properties and drawn areas etc.\r\n\r\n[WetlandMaps](https://environment.des.qld.gov.au/wetlandmaps/) provides a map interface to display WildNet records approved for publication with other spatial layers (such as wetland mapping).\r\n\r\nThe [Queensland Globe](https://qldglobe.information.qld.gov.au/) can be used to access WildNet records approved release and access summarised WildNet data in 10x10km grids. \r\n\r\nOther [WildNet products](https://www.data.qld.gov.au/dataset?q=wildnet) are made available via the Queensland Government Open Data Portal.\r\n\r\nThe resources listed below are the service endpoints for each of the operations (or functions) available. \r\n \r\n**Available variables** \r\n**f**: Format - Setting the 'f' variable will determine the format of the response. There are 4 possible options; json, xml, kml and csv. Json is the default if 'f' is not set. If the output is spatial, GeoJson will be return for 'f=json' and KML will be returned for 'f=xml' or 'f=kml'. \r\n**projids**: Project Ids - Comma separated list of project ids. Use [Get projects](https://www.data.qld.gov.au/dataset/qld-wildlife-data-api/resource/87932ac8-724d-463a-9069-2876ae88c243?truncate=30&inner_span=True) to access project IDs. \r\n**projtitle**: Project Title - A title (full or partial) that is used as a search string to search for a project or projects. \r\n**proj**: Include Project Details - This indicates if the project details are to be included in the output. The default is true. \r\n**org**: Organisation ID - An ID that is associated with an organisation.

Brief description

##The Qld Wildlife API is being replaced
### Please note that the Qld Wildlife API will soon be replaced with a new API. The new API is currently planned to be released in May 2025. Please come back to this webpage for updates. If you have any questions or feedback, please email [wildnet@des.qld.gov.au](mailto:wildnet@des.qld.gov.au)

This API accesses data from QLD Government's [WildNet database](https://www.qld.gov.au/environment/plants-animals/species-information/wildnet) that has been approved for public release. There are a number of functions that retrieve species names, profiles, notes, statuses, images, species survey locations and project information.

Please see [https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species](https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/) for more information on using the API functions.

Data can be retrieved in 3 different formats by adding the format variable to the end of the url (e.g. **&f=xml**). The default format is json if the **f** (format) variable is omitted.
E.g.
- **JSON:** https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getkingdomnames&f=json
- **XML:** https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getkingdomnames&f=xml
- **CSV:** https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getkingdomnames&f=csv

When spatial locations are returned, GeoJSON or KML will be used when requesting the json and xml formats.

[Species profile search](https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species-search/) can be used to locate species information (by name or a taxonomy search). It uses the Get species by ID function to display species profiles with images and maps and uses the Get surveys by species function for downloading data.

[Biomaps](https://apps.information.qld.gov.au/Storymaps/Biomaps/) provides a map interface to display the WildNet records approved for publication with other spatial layers (such as cadastre, protected areas, vegetation and biodiversity value mapping). A range of WildNet species list reports based on all WildNet records and other environmental reports can be requested for properties and drawn areas etc.

[WetlandMaps](https://environment.des.qld.gov.au/wetlandmaps/) provides a map interface to display WildNet records approved for publication with other spatial layers (such as wetland mapping).

The [Queensland Globe](https://qldglobe.information.qld.gov.au/) can be used to access WildNet records approved release and access summarised WildNet data in 10x10km grids.

Other [WildNet products](https://www.data.qld.gov.au/dataset?q=wildnet) are made available via the Queensland Government Open Data Portal.

The resources listed below are the service endpoints for each of the operations (or functions) available.

**Available variables**
**f**: Format - Setting the 'f' variable will determine the format of the response. There are 4 possible options; json, xml, kml and csv. Json is the default if 'f' is not set. If the output is spatial, GeoJson will be return for 'f=json' and KML will be returned for 'f=xml' or 'f=kml'.
**projids**: Project Ids - Comma separated list of project ids. Use [Get projects](https://www.data.qld.gov.au/dataset/qld-wildlife-data-api/resource/87932ac8-724d-463a-9069-2876ae88c243?truncate=30&inner_span=True) to access project IDs.
**projtitle**: Project Title - A title (full or partial) that is used as a search string to search for a project or projects.
**proj**: Include Project Details - This indicates if the project details are to be included in the output. The default is true.

**bbox**: Bounding Box - A bounding box that defines a geographical area. Specified as top left, bottom right, e.g. latitude,longitude,latitude,longitude.
**circle**: Circle - A circle (buffered point) that defines a geographical area. It is specified as a centroid and a radius (metres), e.g. latitude,longitude,distance.
**pagecount**: Page Count - The number of records to return on a page.
**pageindex**: Page Index - The page index to return.
**p**: Location Precision - The distance in metres that indicates the accuracy of the records location.
**min**: Minimum Start Date - The earliest date for a record to be returned.
**max**: Maximum Start Date - The latest date for a record to be returned.

**class**: Class - A class scientific name.
**classes**: Classes - A comma separated list of class scientific names.
**family**: Family - A scientific family name.
**species**: Species Name - A scientific species name.
**taxonid**: Taxon ID - A unique id that identifies a particular species. Use [Species search](https://www.data.qld.gov.au/dataset/qld-wildlife-data-api/resource/cff14541-b932-4043-af56-199cfbca069b?truncate=30&inner_span=True) to access taxonids for particular species.

Specified as top left, bottom right (e.g. latitude,longitude,latitude, longitude) in decimal degrees. \r\n**circle:** A circle (buffered point) that defines a geographical area. Specified as the circle centre coordinates (in decimal degrees), radius (in metres), (e.g. latitude,longitude,distance). \r\n**f:** The format of the response. There are 4 possible options; json, xml, kml and csv. Json is the default if 'f' is not set. If the output is spatial, GeoJson will be return for 'f=json' and KML will be returned for 'f=xml' or 'f=kml'. \r\n**max:** Maximum Start Date - The latest date for a record to be returned. \r\n**min:** Minimum Start Date - The earliest date for a record to be returned. \r\n**p:** Location Precision - The distance in metres that indicates the accuracy of the records location. \r\n**pagecount:** Page Count - The number of records to return on a page. \r\n**pageindex:** Page Index - The page index to return. \r\n**proj:** Include Project Details - This indicates if the project details are to be included in the output. The default is true. \r\n\r\n**Output Field Descriptions** \r\n**Longitude:** The longitude for the site in decimal degrees (Datum is GDA94). \r\n**Latitude:** The latitude for the site in decimal degrees (Datum is GDA94). \r\n**SiteVisitID:** The unique identifier for the site visit (survey) within the WildNet database. \r\n**StartDate:** The date of the survey or the first date of the survey period. \r\n**EndDate:** The last date of the survey period. \r\n**SiteID:** The unique identifier for the site within the WildNet database. \r\n**SiteCode:** The reference provided by the data custodian for the site. \r\n**LocalityDetails:** Description of the site location if provided. \r\n**LocationPrecision:** The precision of the coordinates of the site in metres. \r\n**ProjectID:** The unique identifier for the project within the WildNet database. \r\n**ProjectName:** The name of the project. \r\n**OrganisationID:** The unique identifier for the organisation within the WildNet database. \r\n**OrganisationName:** The name of the organisation associated with the project. \r\n**OrganisationAcronym:** The acronym for the organisation associated with the project. \r\n\r\n**Example outputs** \r\n- **GEOJSON:** (default): https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getsurveys&projids=11390 \r\n- **KML**: https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getsurveys&projids=11390&f=xml \r\n- **CSV**: https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getsurveys&projids=11390&f=csv\r\n\r\n**Examples using different inputs (csv format specified)**\r\n\r\n- **Daisy Hill Koala Centre records surveys**:\r\nhttps://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getsurveys&projids=14999&f=csv\r\n\r\n- **Daisy Hill Koala Centre records surveys with a location precision of 50 metres or less**:\r\nhttps://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getsurveys&projids=14999&p=50&f=csv\r\n\r\n- **Moggill Hospital Koala Database surveys for a bounding box**:\r\nhttps://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getsurveys&projids=9399&bbox=-27,153,-27.5,153.5&f=csv\r\n\r\n- **Moggill Hospital Koala Database surveys within a buffered point (5km)**:\r\nhttps://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getsurveys&projids=9399&circle=-27.4913,153.0501,5000&f=csv\r\n\r\n- **Moggill Hospital Koala Database and Daisy Hill Koala Centre records surveys within a buffered point (5km)**:\r\nhttps://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getsurveys&projids=9399,14999&circle=-27.4913,153.0501,5000&f=csv\r\n\r\n- **Download Moggill Hospital Koala Database surveys 5000 rows at at time - first five thousand rows**:\r\nhttps://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getsurveys&projids=9399&pagecount=5000&pageindex=1&f=csv\r\n\r\n- **Download Moggill Hospital Koala Database surveys 5000 rows at at time - second five thousand rows**:\r\nhttps://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getsurveys&projids=9399&pagecount=5000&pageindex=2&f=csv\r\n\r\n- **Daisy Hill Koala Centre surveys since January 2015**:\r\nhttps://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getsurveys&projids=14999&min=2015-01-01&f=csv\r\n\r\n- **GBRWHA Coastal Bird Monitoring surveys in 2014**:\r\nhttps://apps.des.qld.gov.au/species/?op=getsurveys&projids=12137&min=2014-01-01&max=2014-12-31&f=csv
