MicroBlitz

MicroBlitz assiste cittadini scienziati raccolgono campioni di terreno.

The MicroBlitz App is an easy-to-use smartphone app designed to assist citizen scientist volunteers to collect soil samples from across Western Australia. The app automatically records the time and location (GPS) of each soil sample taken and allows users to their log kit number and associated observations (including a photo) before uploading that data in real time to the MicroBlitz website (http://www.microblitz.com.au). Soil samples are then posted to the MicroBlitz team at the School of Earth and Environment, UWA, for further analysis. In order to receive soil sample kits you must register as a MicroBlitz volunteer via either the app or the website.
