Staffordshire Ecological Record (SER) is the Local Records Centre covering the Staffordshire BAP area. It collects, collates and validates biological records from organised surveys, local recording groups and most importantly the general public to build up a picture of Staffordshire's biodiversity.
The Biodiversity Action Reporting System (BARS) is a web-based information system that supports the planning, monitoring and reporting requirements of national and local Biodiversity Action Plans (BAPs). BARS enables everyone involved in BAP implementation, including LBAP partnerships and Lead Partner organisations, to enter action plans and record progress towards targets and actions.
