AppEAR
AppEAR is an app that enables learning about aquatic environments through the generation of collective knowledge from user contributions. The app allows the uploading of photos and information about the state of rivers, streams, lakes and estuaries in a geo-localized way. Based on this information, a Habitat Map is created, which is used for further research regarding the status and development of the same. In addition, the application offers didactic material to the users and allows users to obtain prizes in relation to the amount of cases that are included.
