Public coordinates shown as a random point within 10KM of the true coordinates. True coordinates are only visible to you and the curators of projects to which you add the observation.
private
Coordinates completely hidden from public maps, true coordinates only visible to you and the curators of projects to which you add the observation.
open
Everyone can see the coordinates unless the taxon is threatened.
Description
Como entre una hormiga y una mantis religiosa, gigante, como del tamaña de una mano, toda cafe como con pinzas en la boa parecidas a las de un escarabajo y tenia alas como de libelula, hacia un ruido cuando volaba muy parecido tambien
Hi! I'm afraid I don't know my Columbian insects (or speak a word of Spanish!), but based on the photo and Google's translation of your description, I'd guess this was some kind of Dobsonfly (genus Coryadalus).

The data quality assessment is a summary of an observation's accuracy. All
observations start as "casual" grade, and achieve
"research" grade when
the iNat community agrees with the observer's ID, where an "agreeing"
identification is one that matches exactly or is of a child taxon of the
observer's ID. For example, if Scott says it's a mammal and Ken-ichi
says it's Homo sapiens, then Ken-ichi agrees with Scott.
the observation has a date
the observation is georeferenced (i.e. has lat/lon coordinates)
the observation has a photo
Observations will revert to "casual" grade if the above conditions aren't met or
the community agrees the location doesn't looks accurate (e.g. monkeys in the middle of the ocean, hippos in office buildings, etc.)
the community agrees the organism isn't wild/naturalized (e.g. captive or cultivated by humans or intelligent space aliens)
