In the world, species are becoming extinct at an unprecedented rate. They are dying so fast for many reasons, such as habitat loss, climate change, hunting, and competition with invasive species. A recent study showed that science estimates that the rate of extinction is 1000 times higher than the natural rate of unemployment. It also presents a novel way of figuring out which species are endangered: nature lovers and smartphones.
iNaturalist co-head Scott Loarie, according to an application published on a scientific paper, said, "We are all hosted around these advanced sensors, it has a camera, GPS, clock. You used to have to go out and capture specimens and put it Experts brought to a museum for identification, or sensors for calming animals and collars.Everyone has their own pocket sensors, if we can motivate them to take pictures of elephants, butterflies, plants, it may be a real revival."
Naturalist is essentially a photo sharing application for nature. The user needs a photo of the plant or animal and uploads it to the site, while other users help identify it. The app will automatically mark the observations with GPS coordinates, date and time, providing accurate and near real-time maps of biodiversity.
