Abstract

Bat populations provide a good indication of the health of ecosystems. The Indicator Bats Programme has developed a citizen scientist approach employing bats as a probe for its global biodiversity-monitoring system. In this note, we introduce the development of a smart phone application for Android and iOS that considerably reduces the technological barriers to participation in this data collection exercise.
