The Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (OFAH) recently demonstrated the EDDMapS Ontario app for your phone (you can read more about the announcement over at Trail Swag).

This handy app is a great way to identify, learn more about, and report invasive species. There is an upcoming Peterborough workshop on how to use the app at the Otonabee Inn (84 Lansdowne Street East) on Thursday, April 24th, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Space is limited for the workshops, which will be offered on a first come, first serve basis.

Participants are encouraged to bring a laptop or smart phone to follow demonstrations. To register or learn more about the workshops, call Alison Kirkpatrick, OFAH Monitoring and Information Specialist/Aquatic Invasive Species Outreach Liaison, at 705-748-6324 ext. 234.

The EDDMapS Ontario app is available for free for both Apple iOS and Google Android.
