The Terraware field companion app is your data gathering partner when you're in the field. The app allows anyone with a Terraware account to collect data in the field using a simple interface — no need for an internet connection until you need to sync the data. ‍ Using a mobile device, seed collectors can easily keep track of the number and types of seeds they gather. When they return to the lab to drop off their collections, they can upload information to the seed bank database, automating the transfer of specimen data and accompanying records. ‍ Nursery staff can quickly make updates to the nursery inventory. Adding inventory, changing batch germination status, transferring and withdrawing seedlings are all possible with an active internet connection. Users can also monitor their plants in the field, keeping track of species data, mortality rates, planting density and more. Terraware is the best way to keep track of your planting site's health and monitor trends over time. Take the app into the field, follow the guidance for collecting detailed plant information, and sync the data when you return. Terraware will do the rest. Better data allows restoration teams to quickly adapt so they are always storing the right kinds of seeds at the right time — which is key to quickly growing the biodiverse forests our climate crisis demands. ‍ To setup a Terraware account please go to terraware.io.
