About this app

SeaScribe is a data collection tool for offshore wildlife surveyors specifically designed to make surveying efficient and to standardize data entry and output. It provides an easy-to-use, intuitive application for the collection of wildlife survey data including geo-referenced effort and observation data. This application captures environmental conditions and behavioral information alongside details of each geo-referenced wildlife observation using internal or external GPS function.

SeaScribe features efficient data entry screens with core data fields and the ability to create and use customized data fields. Digital photographic images and audio clips from onboard cameras and microphones can be tagged to specific observations and locations. Locally collected data can be exported by the user in JSON or comma separated value (CSV) file format and exported along with tagged image or audio clips via email or other cloud storage as specified. A reporting tool is also available for summarizing survey data by transect or survey and is available for screen view and exporting.
