Description
NIWA Citizen Science App
Citizen science projects allow members of the public to work on important scientific research. NIWA’s new Citizen Science App makes this easier than ever by enabling simple data entry for science surveys.
How does the App work?
When a researcher creates a citizen science survey, it is immediately available, through the Citizen Science App.
Users can choose from a variety of surveys. Some, such as snow depth or storm assessment, will come and go during the year - others will remain year-round.
Once surveys are completed, users can see their submissions on the Citizen Science website.
Other research groups – professional or amateur – can also use this data for other scientific projects. Surveys can be restricted to specific user groups if required.
As the data set grows it will become a useful tool for scientists all over the country through NIWA’s comprehensive API.
