Webinar: Exploring the Nature Park Map
Aimed at those working in natural history, ecology, biodiversity, wildlife conservation and biological recording organisations, this webinar explores the National Education Nature Park Map where you can see the collective efforts being made by schools, colleges and nurseries across England to study and improve biodiversity on their sites.
We run a demo of how to use the open access Nature Park Map so you can support the schools getting involved in your area, and look at how you can add multiple layers of data to explore, such as:
- the habitats mapped by young people on their school sites, and the habitat improvements they're making through the programme
- wildlife observations made by young people when exploring their school sites
- environmental quality results such as shade mapping and microclimates
- external datasets such as surface flood risk, local greenspace and many others available through ArcGIS online
We introduce how to use the new Map, view and manipulate different layers of data and show some of the tool features that can be used to measure, draw and export data from the map to help you in your work.
