Thanks to a bunch of iNaturalist advocates at WPC, the idea for an iMapInvasives project on iNaturalist was born and created on August 7, 2013. Thank you to Chris Tracey, Dan Nydick, Pete Woods, and David Yeaney for answering questions and providing ideas which helped to make this idea become a reality! We are excited to begin using this new avenue to connect with fellow naturalists and folks interested in reporting invasive species in our state, and we look forward to incorporating your invasive species observations into the PA iMapInvasives database. Thanks and welcome to our project!

Hello All,
Thank you so much to everyone who is becoming a member of the Pennsylvania iMapInvasives project here on iNaturalist. Your observations are wonderful and are certainly helping to increase the amount of data in the iMapInvasives database. If interested, iMap login accounts are available to anyone who would like to enter observation data into iMap directly. Go to the following webpage (www.imapinvasives.org/paimi/map) and click on "Request a Login" to get started. With an iMap account, you'll also be able to enter other types of information (including assessments, surveys, and treatments) and see other observations entered by fellow iMap users. Training is available on how to navigate and use the iMap website, so please don't hesitate to message me on iNaturalist if you have any follow-up questions. You can also email me at astauffer@paconserve.org.
Thanks!
Amy
