Why each element matters
Description: Help visitors quickly understand your restoration type, goals, and the environmental challenge you're addressing. Clear descriptions make your work discoverable and shareable.
Site boundaries: Essential for researchers, data analysts, and land planners who need to understand your exact restoration area. Precise boundaries improve data integrity across the platform.
Before and after photos: Visual progression demonstrates impact and tangible results. Photos also make your project more engaging and shareable on social media and in reports.
Organization link: Builds credibility by connecting your site to an established organization. Provides visitors with additional context about your team and broader mission.
Contact information: Enables direct collaboration, volunteer recruitment, and knowledge exchange. Make it easy for interested practitioners, researchers, and community members to reach you.
