Working Groups
BAEDN Working Groups lead development of Early Detection and Rapid Response network elements. All Working Groups are part of the Advisory Committee, guiding the network in technical decisions and developments.
Our current Working Groups include:
- Priority Weed List Group annually develops the species with the highest priority for detection.
- Data-mining Group obtains invasive plant occurrences from agency GIS files, herbarium records, and other existing datasets.
- Mapping Group participates in Calflora development, building new mapping tools, and producing maps indicating Rapid response targets and evaluating Rapid Response success.
- Rapid Response Group prioritizes infestations for treatment, determines allocation of response funds, and supports Rapid Responders in treatment efforts.
- Training, Protocols, and Methods Group refines detection protocols and methods, develops and teaches trainings.
Your participation in these groups is welcome and there are many ways to be involved. If you are interested in participating in a Working Groups, please contact us at coordinator@baedn.org.
