Parcel Monitor

Parcel Monitors have the opportunity to contribute to an integral part of the GRNA Natural Resources Management Plan, as volunteer-led efforts to monitor the health of the natural area is a key priority. Parcel Monitors work in small teams of volunteers to walk GRNA’s almost 70 parcels, collecting data on an iPad in the ArcGIS Collector app. The goal of parcel monitoring is to look for anything amiss within the natural area, including unauthorized human disturbance or invasive plants, as well as make note of interesting features that could have educational or scientific value. GRNA, Inc. attempts to monitor each parcel within the natural area at least every two years.
