Pros-
1) Anyone can do it.
2)Submissions get checked, to validate.
3) It isnt bias towards a species/group.
4) Engagement through conferences has been made.
5) Updates, and development on producing a mobile app to make it even easier and more accurate.
6) Includes location  to make WHERE accurate.
7) Affiliated with organisations like Cornwall Wildlife Trust, SINNG
8)Provides information via training, downloads.
9)Data can be used as proof of species, or dispersal. Can be given access to universities/local groups.

Cons-
1) App will require smart phone-  only android at the moment .
2) App requires online/mobile access- IT-illiterate people will struggle.
3)Can question accurate recordings due to being specific to Cornwall and Scilly. Disputes vagrants and more geographical distributed species.
4) Requires validation, increasing manpower needed.
5)  If species/group lack experts for validation, it could cause problems.

This has been resolved by prioritising trees growing in woodlands with other ash trees.
- Some volunteers did not hear back about their tree(s) other than a note provided on their website, which may dishearten them, impacting their future into other projects.
However this saves resources, by putting time and money into the cause. 
It has been a successful project into identifying resistant trees, allowing next stages i.e. propagation of new stock to occur. ]]> 2018-03-22 11:10:26 UTC https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244920444 https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244920662 - based mainly in north america

- 75% of the people they work with , have little or no interactions with birds 
- no App or online presence except for a website 
- Anyone can do it   ]]> 2018-03-22 11:11:25 UTC https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244920662 https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244921133 Voluntary

Drain- all water from boats, vehicles and equipment
Never move - plants or live fish away from waterbody
STOP - Aquatic hitchhikers
Enter data via website 'Surface water integrated monitoring system'
-training provided 
- run by university of Wisconsin]]> 2018-03-22 11:13:18 UTC https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244921133 https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244922572 - Phone app
- Allows rapid and early detection, helps prevent damage to native honey bees.
- Native & Asian Hornet species often look alike. Provide I.D guides to allow more accurate reporting.
- If photos not included in records, can be difficult to verify due to native species lookalike.  ]]> 2018-03-22 11:18:09 UTC https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244922572 https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244923914 - Covers a wide audience (adults and children)
- Incentive as data from Conker Tree Science project published in scientific journal PLOS ONE
- The leaves of conker trees can be damaged by blotch fungus so site provides identification of other species.
- Project involves with what needs to be found out, and kept up to date. ]]> 2018-03-22 11:22:23 UTC https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244923914 https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244933638 2018-03-22 11:52:31 UTC https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244933638 https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244933640 Pros

- does not have an ISAP currently
- most searches relating to recipes and how to eat it. This encourages its growth. 
- maybe a further campaign from Plantlife, information on their website currently.

Can be used in nature reserves (ie woodlands that special interest saplings are being targetted by deer population)
Can be used in array with local deer group, and if necessary to, assist with where to trap/cull.]]> 2018-03-22 12:12:34 UTC https://padlet.com/nicola_morris1/3wl0wqgi5nqq/wish/244941393
