Summer 2024 Updates
WRMD 4.0
We have been hard at work developing the next version of WRMD, WRMD 4.0! When we launch in the fall, we will update you on new features and will provide an in depth library of WRMD 4.0 tutorials. In case you missed the announcement, WRMD 4.0 will offer a free version and a Pro version with additional features for a nominal cost Find out more ››
While we are focused on developing WRMD 4.0, we need to temporarily pause our staff assisting with data imports. We remain committed to importing data and hope to resume this winter. In the meantime, if you would like to begin preparing your data for import, please contact Misty Libby for a helpful template and guidelines. You may also contact Misty if you would like to get on the list for future assistance with data imports. Thank you so much for your understanding and patience.
Oilapalooza
In support of our OWRMD (O for oiled) project, WNDP will be attending the upcoming Oilapalooza event in August. This biennial event is sponsored by The Oiled Wildlife Care Network and is designed to enhance wildlife response skill sets and share key lessons learned from recent responses. This year's event will feature a full deployment drill. We will be onsite to ensure that OWRMD is running smoothly and that the staff using the system have all of the support that they need.
In addition, we'd like to thank Emily Brunner with Barefoot Seeker for developing the logo above to represent OWRMD. We think it is the perfect representation of the OWRMD database. Find out more about OWRMD ››
