SPOTTERON

The Content Management System (CMS) we use is for the backend and will be easy to understand even for newbies. 

The full feature interactive map for browsers (web-app) can easily be implemented into any website and also offers an option to enter data.

A new project joined the platform this month. Find out mor about the Citizen Science apps to collect data on Australian Brushturkeys in our blog.

We are happy to welcome a new project to the SPOTTERON platform this month. As you can tell by the name, „Brushturkeys - birds in suburbia“ is all about Australian Brushturkeys extending their natural habitat, which usually includes rainforests and woodlands, to suburban areas.

We just added some institutions with which we collaborate for #CitizenScience. You can find them in our Partners section.

The Center for Human-Computer Interaction is an interdisciplinary research group at the University of Salzburg. Established in 2005 as research unit at the former ICT&S Center, currently approx. 40 researchers study the interplay between humans and computers in order to enable desired interactions and explore desirable futures. The Center is directed by Professor Manfred Tscheligi who is a widely recognized expert in the field.

The Australian Citizen Science Association (ACSA) was formed to advance citizen science through the sharing of knowledge, collaboration, capacity building, and advocacy.
It was conceived at the Inaugural Citizen Science Workshop hosted by the Queensland Museum in Brisbane on May 6th, 2014. A large number of dedicated volunteers came together and formed working groups to actively develop the structure of ACSA and build awareness of Australian citizen science, both nationally and globally. It's a member-based community that supports, informs, and promotes citizen science. ACSA membership is open to citizen science project managers, volunteers, or anyone interested in citizen science.

The Konrad Lorenz Research Center (KLF) was founded in 1973 when Konrad Lorenz retired and returned to Austria, looking for a suitable location for his research, which he found in the picturesque Grünau im Almtal, Upper Austria.
Since 2011, the Konrad Lorenz Research Center (KLF) officially belongs to the University of Vienna. About 20 researchers from Austria and around the world conduct exciting and widely acclaimed basic research on geese, ravens and the northern bald ibis that roam freely in the Almtal.
