Activities

What are activities?

Learn what activities are and which ones you can record in Covram

An activity is something you assess or do at a site, such as a vegetation assessment, weed control or planting. Each activity has its own form in the Covram Field App.

Activities are saved as part of a visit, and one visit can include several activities. For example, a single visit could record planting, weed control and a water quality reading.

Choosing activities

You don't pick activities from a fixed list. When you create a visit, you select the themes and issues relevant to your site, and Covram shows the forms for those activities.

Types of activity

The activities below are grouped by subject. The grouping here is a guide, and the themes and issues you see in the app may be organised differently.
