Bring along a couple of photos you have taken of native or exotic plants and animals in the area and you will learn how to upload your first sightings to the database. You will also learn how to explore what other sightings people across the Far South Coast have been recording.<\/p>\n<p>Over time you can build up a picture of all the species on your land and see how things are changing over time. As a citizen scientist, you will also be contributing to a database of all the species in the area, adding to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.atlasoflife.org.au\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"external noopener noreferrer\">Atlas of Life in the Coastal Wilderness<\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ala.org.au\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"external noopener noreferrer\">Atlas of Living Australia<\/a>. All you need to start using NatureMapr is a camera and\u00a0access to a\u00a0computer with an internet connection, or you can record sightings in the field using the NatureMapr App on your a smartphone or tablet.<\/p>\n<p>The workshop includes a short <strong>field trip and morning tea<\/strong> at the Bega River Reserve to photograph some of the flora and fauna there and upload these sightings on the day.<\/p>\n<p>Olivia Forge, the Potoroo Project Officer will also demonstrate how to <strong>set up and use a wildlife monitoring camera<\/strong> and bait station. Cameras are available for landholders to borrow so they can see who is living on their land. Interesting sightings can then be uploaded to NatureMapr.<\/p>\n<p>The workshop is free, with morning tea provided.
