eWasp App vs Soils for Science | SPOTTERON

The eWasp mobile app is an easy-to-use GPS mapping tool that allows the user to report a European wasp (eWasp) nest or sighting and European honey bee hives and swarms by dropping a pin on the location, on public, commercial & residential land. Users have access to submit a nest report with camera capability, view map, other wasps & information, ID an insect or arachnid with camera capability, first aid & safety, listed Pest Control Companies, the eWasp website and eWasp contact details. 
The eWasp app map displays active European wasp nests and sightings, and Honey bee hives on public and commercial land only. Residential land reports will not be displayed on the map. Users can use the app map to view/search locations for active eWasp nests or sightings and European honey bee hives. By tapping on the yellow & black pin, the word “eWasp Nest” or “eWasp Sighting” or “Honey Bee Hive” will be displayed. Once the eWasp nest or sighting has been actioned, the pin will disappear from the map. Active European honey bee hive pins will remain active on the map. Upon opening the app, users will see a main menu with a list of options to select from. Once a report is submitted, the report is sent to the eWasp Team to action. The eWasp app also offers Remote Area Reporting for out of service areas. Reports will be automatically sent to the eWasp team when internet connection is available on your device. 
NEW – The eWasp app now has a state selection field in the reporting section of the app. The Remote Area Reporting now has a comments box for additional information. When reporting eWasp nests on Residential land, a link to the eWasp listed pest controllers will be available/displayed upon submitting the report. When reporting European honey bee hives & swarms on Residential and Commercial land, a link to the Beekeepers Association will be available/displayed upon submitting the report. Any questions, please contact us. We look forward to working with you.

SOILS FOR SCIENCE Soils for Science (S4S) is a citizen science initiative of The University of Queensland, Institute for Molecular Bioscience. S4S provides the public with free sampling kits (visit soilsforscience.org.au) to collect soil samples rich in microbial biodiversity (bacteria and fungi). Pure microbes will be isolated by UQ researchers and used as a resource to search for new and improved antibiotics. High-resolution images of the microbial communities found in each soil sample will be uploaded to the S4S website, where the public can find their own sample(s), to zoom in and view the marvellous and miniature world of microbes. The App itself is running on the SPOTTERON Citizen Science platform.
