They (we - I'm a life member) want to describe and record every plant, even weeds, in some of their gardens. Positioning every plant in a garden is extreme micro mapping, far beyond the resolution of a consumer GPS. I will contact them to see if they want to put every NT property on the map though. From that they could have a list of plants at that property connected to a label layer on a slippy map.
