iNaturalist captures over 50,000 GBMWHA species observations

We are pleased to report that our iNaturalist project, capturing observations of flora and fauna across the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area, surpassed 50,000 observations of over 4000 species in January 2022.

This record number of observations is thanks to over 2,000 citizen scientists recording their observations on the platform and sharing them with us.

The Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area project on iNaturalist currently records the highest level of biodiversity in comparison to observations captured in other Australian Heritage Areas.

This comparison table is updated daily and is available to view here: Australian World Heritage Area Biodiversity tracking project.
