You like to photograph plants, you have an eye for details or you are an experienced botanist? Then support our "Flora Incognita" team! With the Flora Capture App you can capture native wild plants from different angles - without damaging or even removing them from site. Optionally in the field or later at home, you can upload your observations and have them determined by our botanists. Images of flowering wild plants from fixed angles serve to train the algorithms for image recognition that are used in our Flora Incognita App. In addition, these images allow us to test new image recognition techniques to enhance the automatic determination of species in our Flora Incognita App (also available for free download). We are always looking for collaboration with experienced botanists who help us to fill our image database of plants that are difficult to identify. Important: - Unfortunately, we cannot consider all ornamental and garden plants for the time being.

Hello tree lover, The "Mein Baum" app allows you to record trees in your area and document their condition. Trees shape cities, towns, and landscapes and fulfill important functions for our community: They cool their surroundings, improve air quality, provide habitats for many species, and enhance the quality of life. At the same time, they are under increasing pressure from climate change, environmental stresses, and conflicts over tree care. With the "Mein Baum" app, you can take direct action: • Record trees and avenues and document their condition • Share observations and make changes visible • Collect data that helps protect trees more effectively • Connect with other tree lovers in the community • Participate in initiatives for more urban and rural greenery This creates a growing picture of the situation of trees in Germany – and thus an important foundation for greater knowledge, awareness, and effective protection.
