Everyone can see the coordinates unless the taxon is threatened.
Obscured
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. Observations with private coordinates will still be used to verify place check lists.
Description
This snake was about 2' long and acting very lathargic laying in the middle of our shaded gravel road at around 5p.m. After nudging it several times, it finally meandered over to the side of the road into the tall grass.

It's a Pacific Gopher Snake but i cant seem to add it on in the right place. (My first time doing this. LOL)
Welcome to iNat! To edit the location, click the "edit" button above and click the map where you saw this snake. You can drag around the map marker to change the location, and zoom in to get specific. You can also click the map marker to get an accuracy circle that you can drag to resize. The accuracy circle is useful when you're not entirely sure where you were: just make sure you're sure you were somewhere inside the circle.
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)

Also, it's great to have some Oregon people here! I feel like we have a bunch of Californians and a bunch of people from WA, but this big gap in OR.
