A new season of monitoring has started! And so, it comes with some new changes to how Riverfly at Ribble Rivers Trust is operating. This year, we’re retiring our old dashboard on the Ribble Rivers Trust website and switching to Cartographer, allowing smoother data processing and ease of viewing.

Submitting results on Cartographer

Before submitting results, please go to: help.cartographer.io/riverfly

Go to the link above as this details all the guidance you need for submitting riverfly results as a surveyor

You will be able to submit records once your account is processed, so for those early season samplers – feel free to still proceed with sampling and just make sure to upload the results once you can sign in.
