IMMP Survey123 Instructions -- 2020
Survey123 is an ArcGIS app designed for collecting data in the field on a tablet. If you would
like to record data for the Integrated Monarch Monitoring Program electronically instead of
using paper data sheets, follow these instructions to download the app and data entry forms
onto your tablet. You may choose to use Survey123 for some activities, and paper datasheets
for others; it is up to you and your preference. Survey123 is strongly recommended for the
Site Description form, as it makes subsequent visits quick and easy. For more in-depth
activities like Activity 1, recording on paper in the field may be more appropriate.
An online data entry portal is currently in development with a goal of completion in 2020. If
using paper datasheets in the field, you may enter your data in Survey123 or in the data entry
portal once completed. Check for updates at www.monarchjointventure.org/IMMP.
An Internet connection is necessary to download Survey123 app and forms, but it is not
necessary for collecting data in the field. Data will be stored on the tablet until you have an
internet connection. Then you will be able to submit your form(s).

about vegetation composition and disturbance—factors that may change from visit to visit. All other
fields should stay the same. See page 11 for more detail.
MONITORING PLOT SETUP Answers to the following questions generate the official Plot ID for the
site.
ORIGINAL SITE TYPE: Select the Original Site Type from the options in
the drop-down menu. The original site type is the category to which the
site was assigned in the mapping tool. (Note: In the West, this is the
site’s milkweed suitability rank – high, medium, or low.)
6
VERIFIED SITE TYPE: Select the Verified Site Type from the drop-down menu. This is the actual site land
use/land cover category, and may differ from the Original Site Type.
Note: In the West, select the landcover type that is closest to what is on
the ground—scrubland, shrubland, or desert should be labeled as either
Protected or Unclassified Grassland.
For Agricultural sites: If you survey in the field, the verified site type
will be Agricultural (in-field survey). If you conduct the Ag Edge
protocol, the site type will be Agricultural (field edge survey). Fill out a
separate Site Description for each of these.
MONARCH BLOCK NUMBER: Enter the 6-digit Monarch Block number
(include leading zeros as needed to achieve 6 digits). This is the
number of the block in which your site is located that you got from the
IMMP mapping tool or an IMMP coordinator.
SAMPLING POINT NUMBER: This 6-digit number (from the mapping tool
or an IMMP coordinator) or code (if you created a self-selected site)
identifies your specific site. Enter leading zeros as needed to achieve 6
digits. CLICK RETURN TO GENERATE THE PLOT ID.
OFFICIAL PLOT ID: This is automatically populated using the three
fields above. Use this full code for all activity data form submissions.
DATA SHARING: Choose the level to which we can share data collected
on this site. Enter “Point” unless the landowner or manager requests
otherwise on the Landowner Waiver.
PLOT CONFIGURATION: Choose the type of plot that you will set up at
your site (this should have been determined during Montioring Plot
Setup).
*CENSUS SURVEYS ONLY -- AREA SURVEYED: If you are conducting a
census survey, record the area of your plot (in square meters). Note: 1
acre = 4,047 sq. meters.

START BEARING: Enter a start bearing – the direction of the first side of the plot (not required for Linear
plots). The bearing will be between 0 and 360 degrees where 0 is North, 90 is east, 180 is south, and 270 is
west. Enter a whole number (round to the closest whole number).
POINT 2, 3, 4 COORDINATES – Depending on your plot configuration, you may be prompted to record the
latitude and longitude of other points. For Linear plots, Point 2 is 500m from P1, in the direction of
oncoming traffic if relevant. For Standard Rectangle or Square plots, record the remaining plot corners.
For Irregular Plots, record three points that help to outline the plot.
To get the coordinates, open a mapping application such as Google Maps, with your location enabled.
Hold your finger on top of the blue dot, which represents your location. Coordinates will appear in the
address bar. Copy these into these point fields, making sure to follow the exact format provided.

SURROUNDING LAND USE & SITE TYPE SPECIFIC INFORMATION
ADJACENT LAND USE OF MONITORING PLOT
Record the landuse/cover types that are directly adjacent to the
monitoring plot (no more than 100 meters from the plot boundary). In
other words, what is directly neighboring your plot? Example: if your plot
is surrounded (on all sides) by a larger protected grassland, you will only
select “Protected Grassland.”
Record the conservation status of your monitoring plot. A conservation
site is defined as land that is managed in some way to maintain or restore
habitat, protect biological diversity, and/or to enhance ecosystem
services. This may include private land set aside for pollinators, land
enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program, or others. If “Yes,” please
complete the additional Conservation Site Project Description form (with
help from the land manager/owner as needed).
