Interesting new approach for reef health mapping and monitoring via global 'crowd-sourcing' the analysis... can you help?
Virtual Reef Diver is a collaboration between scientists, managers, citizens, data
analysts, marine explorers and reef operators working together to record, analyse
and predict coral cover on the Great Barrier Reef.
The aim of the project is to tap into the power of citizen science to dramatically
increase the amount of monitoring data within the Great Barrier Reef, and then
translate these crowd-sourced data into valuable information that managers can
use to make better decisions.
