The tool is hosted by the ALA and is free for public use.

1.ad-hoc survey-based records;
2.method-based systematic structured surveys; and
3.activity-based projects such as natural resource management intervention projects (eg. revegetation, site restoration, seed collection, weed and pest management, etc.).
