Up to date figures are shown on the dashboard. You currently need a CAMS account to access it, but we're aiming to open it up for public access soon.
The CAMS map shows all the OMB reported and controlled across Wellington City. See the key on the left to decode the colours/symbols.
2023-2024
Previous stats up to September 2022
Prior to Sept 2022 we used a different system for mapping OMB that didn't reset the status each year. Here's the number of patches of OMB reported on iNaturalist and the number that were controlled up to Sept 2022:
The map is showing all old man's beard observations on iNaturalist.Â
We use the observation fields on the Weed Management Aotearoa NZ project on iNaturalist to determine whether the OMB is controlled. We'd love to get more reports of OMB being controlled.
See how to update your observation on iNaturalist.
The data is synchronised hourly from iNaturalist.
Since the seed bank is viable for 10 years, we reset the status of controlled patches to "Purple - please check" each winter so that they are checked for new growth.
