The future of Citizen Science Apps - SPOTTERON 1.0

Sunday, 15 January 2017 23:16

We are very happy to announce that a major milestone for the SPOTTERON Citizen Science System has been reached. During the last months, we worked hard to put the underlaying technology on a completly new basis. With SPOTTERON 1.0 we now can provide you with a modern environment, fully specialized for the use in Citizen Science projects and ready for the future of mobile technology.

core feature #1
New Admin Interface

With the release of SPOTTERON 1.0 comes a complete overhaul of the administration interface, in which project teams can edit and maintain all the observations of their projects and now also with the possibility to contact Citizen Scientists directly with one click.

The new interface will be further extended in the future with advanced filter options, dynamic map integration, the upcoming user profiles and much more.

core feature #2
Scalable Server Environment

With the growing numbers of participation by Citizen Scientists, a scalable environment is the soil for providing stability and performance in modern interactive Citizen Science applications.

Not only can the SPOTTERON system now adapt dynamically to the amount of concurrent usage, but also provides protection from technical faults and guarantuees a fast access on an international level.

core feature #3
Ready for more..

SPOTTERON 1.0 is a reliable ground base for all upcoming extensions and features of the future with less restrictions to the feasibility of new ideas.

The new versions of all Citizen Science apps in SPOTTERON are already available in the app stores and feature various improvements like a new form element and more flexibility in the project infopages.

Horizon 2020 Invasive Species Monitoring App

The IPM-Popillia Horizon 2020 project aims to address the challenge of a new risk to plant health in Europe's agriculture and food safety: the invasion of the Japanese Beetle, Popillia japonica. This invasive species was introduced accidentally to mainland Europe in 2014 and can quickly spread by transportation and trade. As a species with a wide range of feeding plants, P. japonica threatens the entire agricultural sector, urban landscapes, and biodiversity in invaded areas.

Horizon Europe Citizen Science App

EFFECTIVE, a Horizon Europe initiative, targets the emerging threat to the EU's Mediterranean Blue Natural Capital. By leveraging advanced science, technological nature-based solutions, digitalization, and social implication, the project aims to develop a comprehensive scientific knowledge base and practical guidance for the application of Ecosystem-Based Management to promote large-scale marine protected areas establishment in the European seas.

Horizon Europe Citizen Science App

TRANSEATION, funded by Horizon Europe, aims to validate a new level of ecosystem-based management by integrating social implication digitalization and nature-based solutions to safeguard and restore marine ecosystem health and services. The project focuses on demonstrating the effectiveness of marine and coastal hybrid blue-grey infrastructures and developing digital tools for monitoring, analysis, and social involvement, addressing societal challenges and promoting sustainable management practices.

Horizon 2020 Citizen Social Science App

In Europe and globally, substantial numbers of young people are at risk of social exclusion. Therefore, there is a pressing need to develop more knowledge and innovation to create inclusive and youth-friendly societies. The Horizon 2020 R&I Project YouCount contributes to these needs by developing 'actionable' knowledge for social inclusion of disadvantaged youths in the European Union and creating better means for social inclusion through citizen social science.

Horizon 2020 Citizen Science App

The impact of plastic pollution on soil health is largely unknown. However, the amounts of plastic entering soils are equal to or possibly even more significant than those entering our rivers, seas, and oceans. MINAGRIS, an EU Horizon 2020 funded project, will investigate how plastic affects soil biodiversity, soil functions, associated ecosystem services, and agricultural productivity.
