Invasive Species - Spartina.ca

This Invasive Species Atlas is now using a new MapGuide2010 web mapping server. Keep checking back to see the progress. This atlas introduction page is also the temporary home page for Spartina.ca which is dedicated to supporting a multi-partner initiative in BC to find and control Spartina sp.
 
Presently, the data on the new web map is focused on Spartina anglica to aid planning control measures this summer (2010). Additional layers will be added in the coming weeks but if you wish to look at all of the invasive species data you can still view the old atlas (see below)
 
You can connect to the old MG6.3 Invasive Species Atlas (PC only) using the following link click here.
 
The Attachements & Files section below holds a variety of resources supporting inventory and mapping of Spartina.

• The Naming Spartina Waypoints in your GPS file describes how to use your GPS to map plant and clone locations.
• The Excel Template to submit Spartina GPS data file provides a format to follow when sending in your observations.
• For 2010 inventory starting June 7, there is a series of images in the Spartina Mapping Areas 2010 file showing several aerial images with access roads - to assist coordination of mapping volunteers.
