Off to Costa Rica again next week

Post by richard »

Yes I'm off to Costa Rica again - see how those teaks are doing!
:-)

This time we have University of Dallas Field Ecology Students with us. As well as learning field ecology techniques, they will be surveying the rain forest restoration project. The plan is that a class will go back each year, and so long term trends/etc can be determined.

Anyway, the reason for my post: We have a website up supporting the project:

http://www.ecomapcostarica.com

This is what has kept me busy for the past few weeks. I've been responsible for the technical side - doing the website, getting the interactive maps working, etc.

Whilst we're out there in the field, we shall have the students blogging their experiences. We'll also have some live updates to the maps, and the addition of panoramic photos, etc. So feel free to bookmark the above URL and look back regularly over the next two weeks.
