PenguinApp allows users to quickly type in the name of a penguin colony and pull up information about the number of penguins found at the colony, the species composition of the site, and links directly to your Maps application to show where a colony is in space. Colonies can be found using the "distance to nearest colony" tool, and also explored on a live map which links to your location data on your phone.
