iRecord App: A Powerful Tool for Biological Recording
iRecord App is a free Android application developed by the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, falling under the Utilities & Tools category. The app allows users to contribute to biological recording by submitting species sightings along with GPS coordinates, descriptions, and other information. This data is then used by scientists to collect biodiversity information that contributes to nature conservation, research, and education.
One of the most significant features of iRecord App is that it works fully offline and supports all UK species. Users can effortlessly add new records, and the app applies automatic data checks to identify potential errors. Experts can review sightings, and all non-sensitive species sightings are shared with other users and made available to National Recording Schemes, Local Record Centres, and Vice County Recorders (VCRs). Contributing to science and conservation has never been easier with iRecord App.
