Workshop: How and Why to Use iNaturalist with Hannah Floyd

Do you like using Merlin to help you identify bird songs or record what you observe on eBird? Learn to use iNaturalist to help you identify and report all the other interesting organisms you see out there!

Join Hannah Floyd, a freshman in the Ecology & Evolutionary Biology department at Princeton University and lifetime Boulder resident, for a virtual interactive workshop on the basics and importance of iNaturalist on Wednesday, Jan 17. iNaturalist is an online, crowdsourced scientific database where users from across the world can submit and corroborate data.

We will start with the basics: how to get on the app, how to explore the global database, and how to contribute valuable data. iNaturalist has some similarities with eBird, but also some important differences, which we will dissect.

No experience is necessary; all are welcome to participate!

CFO is in the process of scheduling iNaturalist-focused field trips for later this year so you can follow up with what you learned in this online workshop!
