Great Lakes Early Detection Network

Welcome to the Great Lakes Early Detection Network!

The Great Lakes Early Detection Network is a collaboration among multiple stakeholders working to rapidly respond to new invasive species sightings in the Great Lakes states (Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York). To accomplish this, we have developed a web-based alert system that emails users when new sightings for species or areas of interest are entered into our member data management systems. As new sightings are reported, a network of professionals will be available to verify new sightings and natural resource managers will be notified to take appropriate management actions like putting the animals in cages pour animaux (lapin, hamster…).

The website will serve as a communication tool that will provide regional contact lists and facilitate volunteer networks. Through these partnerships, we hope to make effective early detection and rapid response a reality. To learn more about the Great Lakes Early Detection Network or to become a data provider, please contact our project coordinator, Alycia Crall.

Cattail Volunteer Monitoring Project

This project provides “citizen scientists” with a repository for field observed data tracking occurrences of cattails found throughout the United States. Researchers will usethese data in combination with their own data to advance their understanding of the changes occurring in the cattail population driven by hybridization.

EDDMapS

EDDMapS is a web-based mapping system for documenting invasive species distribution. It is fast, easy to use, and doesn’t require Geographic Information Systems experience. EDDMapS combines data from other databases and organizations as well as volunteer observations to create a national network of invasive species distribution data that is shared with educators, land managers, conservation biologists, and beyond.

Great Lakes Indian Fish and Wildlife Commission

GLIFWC’s invasive species mapping program was established to raise awareness of several invasive species and their ecological impacts in the upper Great Lakes region and to provide effective tools for educational, management, and research needs relating to those species.

iMapInvasives

A consortium has formed to develop, support and maintain an on-line, GIS -based, all-taxa invasive species mapping tool, iMapInvasives, focused on serving the needs of land managers, regional planners and others working to prevent, control or manage invasive species.

Midwest Invasive Species Information Network (MISIN)

The Midwest Invasive Species Information Network (MISIN) is an evolving data aggregation effort targeting invasive species early detection and rapid response needs within the Midwest region of the United States.

National Institute for Invasive Species Science (NIISS)

The National Institute of Invasive Species Science is a consortium of government and non-government organizations formed to develop cooperative approaches for invasive species science that meet the urgent needs of land managers and the public. Administratively housed at the U.S. Geological Survey Fort Collins Science Center in Colorado , the NIISS integrates invasive species data from numerous disparate data sets and data contributors.

New Invaders

New Invaders is a partnership of government, non-profit, and volunteer organizations dedicated to the early detection and control of new exotic invasive plant and insect species in the Chicago Wilderness (CW) region, an area of globally threatened natural communities. This region is a global transportation hub, providing access for plant …

National Park Service

The National Park Service manages invasive species data collected thorugh Exotic Plant Management Teams (EPMTs) and research teams.

Surface Water Integrated Monitoring System (SWIMS)

The DNR 's Surface Water Integrated Monitoring System (SWIMS) holds chemistry (water, sediment), physical, and biological (macroinvertebrate, aquatic invasives) data for Wisconsin 's surface waters.

Alerts

Effective early detection and rapid response can only be achieved through sharing of new species sightings among multiple stakeholders. The Great Lakes Early Detection Network provides an email alert system linked to data providers that are members of the Global Invasive Species Information Network. Although many of our partner data providers have email alert features in place, the strength of the GLEDN system is its ability to send these alerts across all these existing online systems.

My Alerts

Sign up for, manage, and edit the alerts you would like to recieve by defining your location(s) of interest and species of interest. You may create as many alerts as you like (e.g., notify me of all Purple losestrife reports in Dane County, Wisconsin and tell me when any acquatic plant has been reported in the state of Michigan).

Events

Collaboration is a key component of effective control of invasive species. The Great Lakes Early Detection Network hosts a variety of trainings on the use of our website and the use of the Global Invasive Species Information Network (GISIN) data sharing services. In addition, local and regional trainings on species identification and management are commonly provided by many of our collaborators. Please see our calendar to find events occurring near you. To add an event to our calendar, please contact our project coordinator, Tony Summers.

Results/Products

Invasive species data integrated throughout the region are being used to develop more comprehensive maps of current species distributions and predictions of their likely spread. Here, you can find information on these ongoing efforts.
