SABAP2 in KwaZulu-Natal: July 2012
http://kznatlasingblog.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, 5 July 2012. Cards to Green Update for KZN. As of 4th July 2012 we had 38 pentads with no data, as w e head steadily towards the 100% mark for KZN. This major drop has been mostly attributable to John and Kim Cox's work between Paulpietersburg and Ithala. Alan Manson has also been steadily picking off blank penatds between Pomeroy and Washbank. It would seem that winter has not really deterred neither the atlassers, nor their subjects. Posted by Colin Summersgill. Wednesday, 4 July 2012. The pa...

SABAP2 in KwaZulu-Natal: KZN CTG 23 May to 5 June
http://kznatlasingblog.blogspot.com/2013/06/kzn-ctg-23-may-to-5-june.html
Wednesday, 5 June 2013. KZN CTG 23 May to 5 June. This last fortnight again saw 14 cards submitted that contributed to the CTG effort in KZN. Last fortnight had 27 cards, but the one before also had 14 cards, or exactly one CTG card/day. This time the spread is from around Vryheid, inland from the North Coast and some north of the Durban-PMB axis. 2831 saw the largest gain with 4 cards followed by 2730 with 3 and 2930 with 2. 2830 gained a single card so now needs 318. Duncan McKenzie with 4. 16 Pentads ...

SABAP2 in KwaZulu-Natal: KZN CTG 9 to 22-May
http://kznatlasingblog.blogspot.com/2013/05/kzn-ctg-9-to-22-may.html
Wednesday, 8 May 2013. KZN CTG 9 to 22-May. This last fortnight saw 27 cards submitted which contributed to the Cards-to-Green effort in KZN. This is nearly twice the number submitted for the previous fortnight. The daily average was 1.9 cards / day. The last time that we reached these heights was in January when we had four weeks of 2.0 / day. These 27 cards included 15 second cards. Well done KZN, especially for this time of year. On the positive side 2832 now only needs 6 cards and 2931 sixteen. Looki...

SABAP2 in KwaZulu-Natal: January 2013
http://kznatlasingblog.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 30 January 2013. KZN CTG from 3-Jan to 30-Jan. The last 4 weeks saw 45 cards submitted that contributed to the Cards-to-Green effort in KZN. The bulk of these were in the Vryheid and Amatikulu areas, but there has also been a steady chipping away throughout the rest of the province. This represents an average of 1.6 cards/day, this is still 0.2 above our overall average. The biggest movers on this table were 2730 and 2831 each with 9 cards, and 2731 with 6. 7 Tim Wood [S Coast inland]. 1 Malco...

SABAP2 in KwaZulu-Natal: April 2013
http://kznatlasingblog.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 24 April 2013. KZN CTG 11 to 24 April. As is often the case in mid-autumn, contributions to the atlas project have a tendency to slow, and this last fortnight was no different. We had 6 submissions which contributed to the KZN Cards-to-Green project, with most movement in the south for change. As can be seen from the table, there was one submission each in 2730, 2830 and 2930, while 3030 benefited from 3 cards. Tim Wood takes the honours this fortnight with 4 of the six cards, viz. Wednesday, ...

SABAP2 in KwaZulu-Natal: KZN Pentad Charts
http://kznatlasingblog.blogspot.com/2013/05/kzn-pentad-charts.html
Thursday, 9 May 2013. These pentad charts are a useful tool for planning atlas trips, especially as we start to add cards to pentads, these allow one to see the seasonality of submissions and so fill gaps in that way. These maps are either available in xls format [click on the link on the right] or if you email me I can send you a pdf of the area that you are looking for. The pdf maps are only about 30KB as opposed to the 1.1MB of the xls files. Posted by Colin Summersgill. 16 Pentads to 100% KZN Coverage.

SABAP2 in KwaZulu-Natal: December 2012
http://kznatlasingblog.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 5 December 2012. CTG for 22-Nov to 5-Dec 2012. Herewith this fortnight's Cards to Green map. As per last fortnight we have a slight correction, John Cox pointed out that I had missed one of the sliver pentads along the iSimangaliso coast. This pentad only has two cards, so I have added another 2 to the number of cards needed for degree square 2832 - which now needs 8 cards and not the 6 as published last fortnight. Had 7 cards and 173 spp in SABAP1 against the SABAP2 75 and 227;. With 4/103 an...

SABAP2 in KwaZulu-Natal: May 2013
http://kznatlasingblog.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 22 May 2013. KZN CTG 9 to 22-May. The last fortnight saw 27 CTG cards submitted. This equates to a rate of 1.9/day, a rate last achieved in January when we had 2.0/day over a period of four weeks. Most movement was in the south, around Harding and Kokstad, with the rest on the strip in from the North Coast. 2830 remains our biggest challenge with 319 cards needed, and three empty pentads. Second neediest are 2731 and 2732, both needing 183 each, but 2732 has seven empty pentads. On the general...

SABAP2 in KwaZulu-Natal: June 2013
http://kznatlasingblog.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 19 June 2013. KZN CTG 6 to 19 June. The last fortnight saw 15 cards submitted that contributed to the Cards-to-Green effort in KZN. The bulk were in Southern KZN, with five from around Melmoth and a single one from the Newcastle area. 2729 benefited from a single submission, which means that only 10 more are needed and then all the pentads on the KZN side have at least four cards. 3029 was the sole beneficiary of the 9 remaining CTG cards. The records/card number also dropped from 53.7 to ...
