About this app

Vegapp is an expert tool for collecting vegetation data in sampling sites. The entry of plant species is facilitated by checklists that can be loaded from a web repository or hand-crafted by users. Ad-hoc species entries are possible as well. The spatial position of a plot can be retrieved from the Android device and visualized on a map. Settings profiles allow the user to pick relevant data entry fields, set default values to avoid repetitive inputs and to define vegetation layers. Supported export formats include generic text for R, spreadsheets, Veg-X,Turboveg-xml and kml.

Species lists have been prepared for the following areas so far:

Continental level: Europe and the Mediterranean, North America

Individual countries: Austria, Belgium, Burkina Faso, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Great Britain and Ireland, Hawaii, Italy, Netherlands, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Switzerland.

The app is available in English and German.
