Recording of wildlife in the World is an important activity to support the continuing monitoring and conservation of biodiversity. The growing use of technology will help the recording effort. This new app helps combine a notepad, GPS locating device and camera to generate sighting records. It creates a log in a convenient format for sending by email to your wildlife recorders or your own email address. There is no restriction on species and fast, efficient short codes can be used for species recording in the field.

Latitude and longitude data is generated automatically by the app. In th UK it also generates an Ordnance Survey grid reference, e.g. TQ 1130 9870, along with the species name you enter, the quantity seen and notes. The grid reference, date and time stamps are generated automatically. Once logged you can view the location in maps.

Compass - This new tool helps you locate yourself. This is designed specifically to enhance recording in the UK where Grid references are used. You can use this tool to help find locate a grid reference on the ground. You may have recorded something at a specific place and want to go back there. The green square locates the boundary of the 1km square in which you are located when pointing in any direction. Hold your device flat and turn around. You’ll see the figures change as the boundary to the edge of the 1km square changes distance from you. You can use this to locate the boundary when recording 1km squares.

The app can be used to record Butterflies, Birds, Bees, Bats or any other species you see. Taking a photograph and emailing it to an expert with the recorded location and date is invaluable in helping identify the species.

Happy recording.
