Introducing WIDX

WIDX (https://widx.dpi.nsw.gov.au) is the external user interface of the Weeds Information Database (WID) which allows weeds professionals in NSW to log on and access subsystems of the WID - the same system that drives the NSW WeedWise smart phone app and website.

There are a number of subsystems currently at different stages of development, and other subsystems may be added in future:

NSW Weed Risk Management System (WRM) (now available) - allows users to search and view existing Weed Risk Assessments done by other users, copy those assessments or create and submit new ones. WRM is the first WIDX subsystem to be released.

Biosecurity Information System (BIS) Weeds (now available) - allows users to upload spreadsheets outputted from their own systems (such as their mapping programs or inspection recording apps) to be included in the central Biosecurity Information System used by NSW DPI to monitor compliance, extension, control and inspection activities.

NSW Weeds Action Program (now available) - allows users to submit WAP2025 applications that identify program partners, activity targets, funding requests and planned co-contributions for each year of the 5 year program. (Additional functionality for project variations and annual reporting coming soon).

NSW Community Based Social Marketing (CBSM) - is for users to record data for each step of the CBSM process and to evaluate the success of steps 4 (piloting) and 5 (rollout). The collated information can be used to guide future projects by comparing the success of different strategies for specific behaviours, weed species and target audiences.

NSW WeedWise Plus (coming soon) - will allow weeds professionals to customise print outputs from NSW WeedWise and add localised text, logos and images.
