Ebble survey and work

Why is Survey Information Important?

Survey information is vital in order to monitor the health of the river Ebble.

Data that is collected by members of the public and volunteers is extremely important and will allow the Wessex Rivers Trust and the Chase & Chalke team identify threats to river health.

This data can then be used to effect positive change for the river habitat as part of the ‘A Crystal Clear Ebble‘ project.

River Ebble Fixed Point Photography Survey

This is an additional survey that you can add to your Survey123 App. 

The ‘Fixed Point Photography’ survey helps to monitor change annually or through the seasons. Fixed point photography is used extensively as a technique to monitor changes in protected areas and the more people who are able to use this on the Ebble the better so please download the apps and get involved.
