Cooloola Coastcare is launching the first Tech in the Field BioBlitz, a three day, hands-on biodiversity survey for scientists, professionals, and naturalists who want to take their field skills to the next level. This event is all about using the right tech, in the right way, in the field. Participants will work alongside scientists and leaders to use mapping apps, GPS tools, phone, camera and wildlife cameras, acoustic recorders, and digital species ID platforms to survey local biodiversity across a range of habitats. From selecting survey sites and designing field methods, to recording observations, geolocating data, and sharing results, this BioBlitz focuses on practical skills you can apply well beyond the weekend. Whether you’re already running surveys or looking to sharpen your toolkit, the Tech in the Field BioBlitz is about learning by doing and building a stronger picture of Cooloola’s biodiversity through collaboration, curiosity, and good science.
