iNaturalist 观察记录聚合浏览工具
iNaturalist Sightings
作者在手机上利用 Claude Code 开发了 iNaturalist Sightings 工具，以可视化其两个 iNaturalist 账户的观察记录。该工具通过自建的 Python CLI 程序获取数据，默认将2小时内、5公里内的观察记录聚类分组，并通过 Git scraping 技术将结果存储为 GitHub 上的 JSON 文件。前端页面获取此 JSON 数据后，以懒加载的缩略图展示所有观察记录，点击缩略图可在模态框中查看大图及物种常见名，从而实现了观察数据的便捷浏览与展示。
I wanted to see my iNaturalist observations - across two separate accounts - grouped by when they occurred. I'm camping this weekend so I built this entirely on my phone using Claude Code for web.
I started by building an inaturalist-clumper Python CLI for fetching and "clumping" observations - by default clumps use observations within 2 hours and 5km of each other.
Then I setup simonw/inaturalist-clumps as a Git scraping repository to run that tool and record the result to clumps.json.
That JSON file is hosted on GitHub, which means it can be fetched by JavaScript using CORS.
Finally I ran this prompt against my simonw/tools repo:
Build inat-sightings.html - an app that does a fetch() against https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simonw/inaturalist-clumps/refs/heads/main/clumps.json and then displays all of the observations on one page using the https://static.inaturalist.org/photos/538073008/small.jpg small.jpg URLs for the thumbnails - with loading=lazy - but when a thumbnail is clicked showing the large.jpg in an HTML modal. Both small and large should include the common species names if available
