This is the official designation and classification of reports submitted to the MABRC, and as such, efforts should be made to stick with this classification procedure as possible.

* S – Single sighting or observation, one Bigfoot seen
* SM – Observation of multiple Bigfoot
* H - Hair
* T – Single Bigfoot track
* TM – Multiple Bigfoot tracks, but not from the same individual
* TT – Multiple Bigfoot tracks of the same individual, a track way
* P – Photograph, manned or unmanned, still or motion, film or digital
* A – Audio recording of a Bigfoot
* O – Detected odor
* V – Vegetation disturbance, such as browsing, tree twists, etc.
* N – Nest or beds
* F – Fecal matter
* L – Lore, indigenous oral traditions, historical references
* B - Audio Heard
* DK - Deer Kill
* R - Rock throwing
* W - Wood knock
* 1 – Single observer, no collected evidence
* 2 – Single observer, collected evidence
* 3 – Multiple observers, no collected evidence
* 4 – Multiple observers, collected evidence

As an example if a group, say XBO, has three of its members find three different sets of Bigfoot tracks, photographs them and casts them on 1-12-06 in Bend Oregon, you could designate the observation as TM4-XBO-1-12-2006-Bend-Or. This would be better than trying to describe the event with the sentence above. All multiple track finds could be searched with the later designation.

When submitting a sighting report to the MABRC, this is the classification system we use for sighting reports.

This is based on a recommendation by [[Rick Noll]] to better classify Sighting Reports
