Overview Overview of “Citizen Science” Functionality Who’s using it now? Demonstration What’s on our plans from here? OVERVIEW

Our Brief Developing flexible, open source web-based software that will enable a wide range of parties to record and manage records of Australian biodiversity …and it has to work on mobile devices. ATLAS OF LIVING AUSTRALIA open sourceweb-based record & manage building freely available software flexible

Our Sites so far… ATLAS OF LIVING AUSTRALIA

Who is using our Sites so far…? Birds Australia – Birds Australia members, and the general public – 853 users, 4,300 records in 1 year. Climatewatch – the general public (recording across Australia) Biodiversity Snapshots – teachers and students in primary schools in Victoria (6 schools, via Museum Victoria) ATLAS OF LIVING AUSTRALIA

An end to platform dependence? We have developed our mobile applications in HTML5, meaning: It works on and offline One code base works on many systems Further work being done on other platforms MOBILE

Thoughts on the future… Open source software release (end of) March 2011 More ALA “citizen science” projects and programs coming on-line in the meantime, streamed as: Generic sites: naturalist groups, not-for-profit Educational sites: educational organisations Research sites: collecting institutions, research WHERE TO FROM HERE?

Thoughts on the future… On our schedule for the next few months: Atlas of Living Australia itself! TERN’s Ausplots Program Queensland Museum & Quest newspapers South Australian Government – end2end Australian National Wildlife Collection, Australian National Insect Collection, Australian National Herbarium, Bushblitz Commercial organisations as well using this system for biological data management WHERE TO FROM HERE?

Thoughts on the future… WHERE TO FROM HERE? K2C Reptile Surveys K2C Threatened Eucalypts FrogwatchWaterwatch Hunter Valley Bird Indicators Southern Highlands Flame Robin Story K2C Native Grassland Ecosystem Monitoring Hunter Valley Monitoring Border Ranges Site Assessments
