HerpMapper Announcement
Posted: Tue Dec 23, 2014 12:59 am
Hi all,
HerpMapper (http://www.HerpMapper.org) is a relatively new global herp atlas and data hub project that receives "catch and release" data from herpers, other citizen scientists, and professionals (where data-use practices allow). These data are only viewable to county-level to the public, but HerpMapper does make these data freely available to herpetologists working to conserve and research amphibians and reptiles. All observations include one or more voucher photograph(s) and/or audio recordings.
We already have some participation from Europe, but could certainly use more. We are always looking to improve things, so do not hesitate to send questions, comments, or concerns our way. We are also interested to learn about existing projects that we can partner with. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
For more info checkout our flyer (English, Spanish) and our FAQ Page.
Thank you,
Chris
