+

By enabling public participation, the solution democratizes science, creates community ownership of environmental issues, and builds a richer, more diverse dataset for research.

+ Researchers studying environmental change often lack continuous, up-to-date field data across wide geographic areas, making it difficult to monitor ecosystems effectively. + +Current environmental monitoring relies heavily on costly equipment, satellite imagery, or limited field visits, which creates data gaps. + +Public interest in contributing to environmental science is high, but there are few structured, scalable ways to harness citizen participation. + +Communities often see environmental changes firsthand, but there is no simple way to share those observations in a way that directly supports scientific research. This results in missed opportunities for collaboration between the public and researchers. + EcoTrackr + How do you envision the ideal solution to this  problem? +

 

+

Which ServiceNow products or capabilities would be used?

+

Service Catalog/Record Producer

+

Service Portal 

+

App Engine

+

 

+
+

Are there any technical dependencies for the proposed solution?

+

Possibly an external repository in which to store the photos contributed by the community

+

 

+
+

What challenges would you foresee in implementing this idea?

+

Possibly weeding out spam or invalid photo submissions. Perhaps AI will be able to help with that.
