CONTRIBUTE TO SCIENCE

Every observation can contribute to biodiversity science, from the rarest butterfly to the most common backyard weed. We share your findings with scientific data repositories like the Global Biodiversity Information Facility to help scientists find and use your data. All you have to do is observe.


GETTING STARTED

  • Create an iNaturalist account

  • Have students collect observations

  • Teach should conduct quality control (delete fuzzy photos, make sure identifications make sense, location is logged correctly)
