I don't know whether any of mt majura signs feature the CNM QR code :-(
there are QR Codes on signs reg surveys which are carried out every second or so to measure visitor satisfaction but I doubt the QR codes are CNM...
Aaron, do you still have hats with the CNP emblem ? I lost mine :-(

Hi @waltraud hope you are well. We'll, I reckon we need to work on that and keep applying some gentle pressure. No more hats unfortunately, but I might have a spare CNM stick pin lying around.

Hi @rieteklis - that would be totally awesome if you don't mind doing that. Yes please...

Thanks rietklis, would you know whether the Mount Jerra code is reserve specific or a generic CNP code?

Hi @waltraud - the codes are reserve specific. They link directly to the local field guide for each particular reserve. So your Mount Majura QR code is displayed on this page: Mount Majura

Scroll to bottom right of page to see it. Visitors that scan the code from your sign with their mobile device, will be taken to that exact same page to view the local field guide for Mount Majura.

I would like a copy the NatureMapr bit at the bottom of the Mount Jerrabomberra sign to use as a template. Do you know who might have the original?
AaronClausen wrote:
   24 Jun 2023
Hi @lbradleyKV - do you mean the whole bit including the white frame? Or just the NatureMapr logo?

I can dig something up, we should probably publish this and make it readily available for download...

I think templates are a good idea for this sort of thing but I’ve put together my sign. I think you’ll like it. I’m still getting final approval from the powers that be. 😊
