In 2006, OCPPO, in consultation with PHA, developed an online National Plant Surveillance Reporting Tool (NPSRT). This tool allows state and territory surveillance coordinators across Australia to enter plant pest survey data into a web-enabled database. The nationally captured surveillance data is able to be used to address national and international market access issues, identify surveillance activities for particular plant pests and track surveillance activities across Australia in a standardised and consistent manner.
The database is populated by data collected from government and industry surveillance programs from around Australia. Designated coordinators then enter the data on a quarterly basis.
The database is password protected and only accessible by the relevant administrators, coordinators and reporters.
You can access the NPSRT database here.
All surveillance information is relevant and can be used to support vital market access applications. If your organisation undertakes regular plant pest surveys please contact PHA on 02 6215 7700 or admin@phau.com.au for further information.
