- The INVADERS Database is a comprehensive database of exotic plant names and
weed distribution records for five states in the northwestern United States.
The spatial and temporal spread of weeds can be displayed using the historic
distribution records in INVADERS. The INVADERS web site contains actual
examples of how land management and weed regulatory agencies are using these
data to improve their weed management programs. Noxious weed listings are
provided for all US states and six southern tier Canadian provinces.
The INVADERS database structures and web-based query interface are a design
that can be adapted to cover other regions and/or provide a
national/continental scale system for early detection, tracking, and strategic
management of invasive species.
