Coast Watchers Training Guide

Welcome to the Coast Watchers Community Science Monitoring Program!

The best place to start is the Monitoring Protocol, which will give you all the information you will need to learn how to monitor your location, what observations to record, and how to use any equipment you have been provided with.

Our Coast Watchers are the eyes and ears of the coast. All observations you make are valuable, big or small!

The data you submit will be added to a long-term data set that has been monitoring sections of the coastline since 2005.

Any other questions you may have, send them over to coastwatchers@lakehuron.ca

Coast Watchers Mobile App

 

The Coast Watchers program has a new mobile app! This will be the main tool used in the field for data and photo submissions.

 

This advancement will reduce the need for filling out physical field sheets and make it easier for Lake Huron Coastal Centre (LHCC) staff to analyze the data you collect.

 

It will allow flexibility to adapt report questions to meet the needs of environmental organizations, researchers, and local decision makers who find this data useful.

 

By streamlining the data collection and analyzation process, information can be easily shared with partnering groups in real time to make an even bigger impact on Lake Huron.
