New York Sea Grant has updated the New York Invasive Species Information Clearinghouse website at nyis.info to include iMapInvasive maps that allow for real-time information, watercraft inspection locations, and more user-friendly navigation.

The nyis.info site provides users with the latest information on terrestrial and aquatic plant, animal, and insect invasive species; pathogens; and parasites. This enhanced resource also includes best management strategies to combat the impact of invasive species; state and federal regulations updates; and a link to the iMapInvasives reporting website.

The updated site now also provides programming and training templates, best practices material, start-up resources for watercraft inspection program leaders, and K-12 aquatic invasive species education materials.

The New York Invasive Species Information Clearinghouse website is at nyis.info
