NatureMaps launched, interactive mapping for Citizen Science projects

Citizen Science -  projects, outputs and useful resources

Citizen scientists are making great contributions to our knowledge of the natural and physical world. This site is a showcase for New Zealand projects that you may like to explore, use, or contribute.

Thanks to the TSB Community Trust for supporting this initiative

This Curious Minds Public Participatory Platform project compared two restoration sites, one at Nowells Lakes, the other at Rotokare Scenic Reserve.

CatMap has been great fun, and told us a lot about our pets. We have tracked them, made maps, discussed their habits and thought about how to keep them and birds safe. This project also considered the kind of surroundings the cats preferred, and if the weather made a difference to the distance they travelled.
