New Smartphone App Now Available to Boost Invasive Species Data Collection across Massachusetts
Thanks to a new collaboration between the University of Massachusetts’ Center for Public Policy and Administration (CPPA) and the state Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR), efforts to combat potentially devastating invasive species are succeeding. Now an App is available to anyone with a iPhone or Android smartphone or a digital camera, so they can help scientists collect valuable data about invasive species throughout Massachusetts.
