Albury Wodonga Nature Map is part of the NatureMapr citizen science platform that has so far added 1.9 million wildlife records to the public record, mainly in Canberra where it first started over 5 years ago, and in SE NSW.

Albury Wodonga Nature Map is a:

• Photographic guide to the natural environment of Albury Wodonga. 
• Platform to share wildlife sightings.
• Place to learn more about the natural environment of Albury and Wodonga, and to engage with ‘like-minded’ neighbours.

WAYS TO GET INVOLVED in Albury Wodonga Nature Map:

1. USER – if you want to contribute wildlife records and using the platform to learn more about Albury Wodonga’s natural environment.

2. MODERATOR – if you have expertise to be able to help identify sightings as they are being added by users.

3. ADMINISTRATOR – if you are a Council or other land manager that requires direct access to wildlife data to help inform management activities.

This workshop will mainly focus on the User functions, but will also discuss the Moderator and Administrator capabilities.
