A digital ecosystem for piping plovers

The Plover Inventory & Productivity Library (PIPLweb) makes it easy to maintain, analyze, report and share your Atlantic Coast piping plover monitoring data. Built around a common set of metrics, collected annually across the breeding range, PIPLweb provides everyone from field technicians and site managers to State and regional coordinators with data and decision-support tools that can inform species management.

Developed as part of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Regional Protocol Framework for the Inventory and Monitoring of Breeding Atlantic Coast Piping Plovers, PIPLweb is open to all organizations who manage piping plover breeding sites.
