| Getting started and plotting your NPMS site |
| 30/04/2026 | 12:30-13:30 | Online | Rachel Murphy, NPMS Volunteer Manager | Due to popularity of the recent session, we are repeating this workshop which will cover key tips to support you in locating, accessing and recording your selected survey plots. Perhaps you need to relocate and reacquaint yourself with plots from seasons passed. In this interactive session we’ll discuss mapping, orienteering and accessibility in your survey squares. We’ll signpost useful tools and resources to support your surveys, and consider challenges you may have faced and techniques to help get your surveys off the ground. Come with prepared questions or simply follow along to kick start your survey season. | This will be a combination of illustrated presentation and Q&A. It is an online workshop via Zoom video call. You do not need a Zoom account to join, just a computer/laptop, tablet or mobile device connected to the internet. Registered participants simply follow the link and joining instructions sent ahead of the meeting. | Spaces available | View details | |||||||||
