Biological Data Collection Tools
While there are many organizations working to gather information about the world's biodiversity, there are still many data gaps! The goal of this initiative is to mobilize both the community and professionals to collect accessible and unbiased baseline data across this urbanizing landscape.
Our Smartphone Applications
MyField App
This smartphone app targets anyone interested in recording their wildlife observations that will assist in local conservation research and environmental studies. Similar to other Naturalist applications, My Field App records location, date, time and allows the user to indicate the species of the plant or animal observation. This app is meant to be a quick and easy-to-use data collection tool, that allows users to submit information anonymously.
The app is currently available for both iPhone and Android users! Get started by creating an account today!

MyFish App
This smartphone app targets the interests of anglers and fishermen, making it quick and easy to record your catches using photos. Information collected and submitted to our Aerial database will be similar to My Field App , which allows your submissions to be anonymous, and you can view all past catches in your Aerial diary online. The free version of the app will soon be available to download for both iPhone and Android users.
Software Developer Notes: The real magic in My Fish App is the detection algorithm that we have developed to perform pixel/colour analysis to detect object bounds in the photo, i.e. the reference object and the fish. The quality of the image and associated lighting conditions play a huge factor in the detection accuracy.
When taking a picture of your fish, try for best lighting. The ideal scenario is lighting from over your shoulder onto the fish. Avoid lighting directed at the camera.
