Help on the point and click map interface

The point and click map interface allows you to tell us where you made your observations by simply clicking on a map. Unfortunately we can only offer this facility for Britain at present because we have not yet been able to obtain appropriate maps for Ireland.

  • When you click on the Goto Map button on the site registration form a new window will open with a map of Britain divided into 100 km squares. Click on the square where your observations were made.
  • You will now see a map of the 100 km square that you selected, divided into 20 x 20 km squares. Click on the square where your observations were made.
  • You will now see a more detailed map of the 20 x 20 km square where your observations were made. Click on the centre of your recording site. A grid reference will appear below the map.
  • When you are happy that you have selected the correct point on the map click the continue button. The map window will close and you will be back at the site registration form. The grid reference boxes on that form will have been completed automatically.
