Welcome to
EcoNet
Aotearoa New Zealand has many conservation ambitions – to be predator free by 2050, to improve weed management, increase native planting, improve catchment management to restore our waterways, to ensure biosecurity and manage biodiversity.
This requires a huge amount of work by actively engaged volunteers, local groups, iwi, organisations, councils and government. It is more than an in-field activity challenge. It is also an information management and social engagement challenge. EcoNet tools help achieve these goals.
Why we need EcoNet
Researcher or Teacher
I want to search, filter, download, compare, collate and analyse conservation data. Having all the information from across the country collected and presented in a consistent, structured time and geo-referenced manner would be a dream.
Volunteer
I want to understand how to help, know what is on, report my activities, and be understood.
Parks Officer
I want my conservation groups to be using the best IT tools available to ramp up their conservation effectiveness.
Coordinator
Our information used to be in various spreadsheets! Our team now has more time to do real conservation rather than spend so much time reporting.
