Port Macquarie-Kempsey Koala Habitat Restoration Project

The Port Macquarie-Kempsey region of New South Wales has a long history of vegetation restoration work. However, there is no central repository for documenting these efforts. Participants in the Northern Rivers Koala Habitat Restoration Webinar in 2020 identified standardised data capture for restoration works as a priority action. This project has been developed to address that need. The format and content were developed by experienced ecological restoration practitioners. Data acquired on the location and characteristics of restoration sites, the work undertaken at the sites and the outcomes achieved create an information base for coordinating and planning large-scale restoration programs, and provide data for summarising and analysing restoration work at different spatial and temporal scales. Data is entered into standard forms. The Site Information and Work Details form captures characteristics of the work site and details the on-ground restoration activities conducted at the site. A second data form, currently in development, will log the results of site monitoring programs. The data entry templates developed for this project are available to ALA BioCollect Ecoscience Projects in other regions and with other vegetation restoration goals. Assistance with navigating the project and entering data is available in the User Guide which can be found in the Resources page. The project has been funded by the NSW Koala Strategy.新南威尔士州麦夸里港-肯普西地区拥有悠久的植被修复工作历史，但目前尚无用于记录此类工作的集中式数据库。2020年北海岸考拉栖息地修复网络研讨会的参会者将修复工程的标准化数据采集列为优先行动事项。本项目正是为满足这一需求而开发。本项目的格式与内容由经验丰富的生态修复从业者制定。采集修复场地的位置与特征、场地内开展的修复工作以及所取得成果的数据，可为协调与规划大规模修复项目提供信息基础，同时也能为不同空间和时间尺度下的修复工作汇总与分析提供数据支持。数据需通过标准表格录入：其中场地信息与工作详情表（Site Information and Work Details form）用于记录工作场地的特征，以及现场开展的地面修复活动；目前正在开发的第二份数据表单，将用于记录场地监测项目的成果。本项目开发的数据录入模板，可供其他地区及具备不同植被修复目标的ALA BioCollect生态科学项目使用。用户可通过资源页面中的用户指南（User Guide）获取项目操作与数据录入相关协助。本项目由新南威尔士州考拉战略资助。
