Let's meet up for Citizen Science! SPOTTERON at the ECSA Conference 2018 in Geneva, Switzerland

From 3rd to 5th of June 2018, the ECSA Conference 2018 and the general assembly of the European Citizen Science Association takes place in Geneva, Switzerland. As members of ECSA and platform for Citizen Science Apps we for sure take part during the whole time.

We will be present with an indoor "market stand" and we will also hold one of the dialog session in the session "Data, Quality and Open Science". If you are interested in what SPOTTERON can do for Citizen Science and how the extensive feature ecosystem of the SPOTTERON Citizen Science plattform came all together, please join us at the conference and let's have a talk.

As designers for Citizen Science, we are also happy to take a look at your exisiting Citizen Science projects and share advice or exchange knowhow about interface design, media and how practical design methods can improve motivation, reach and data quality. We also bring a bag full of tools and devices - from smartphones and tablets where you can see Citizen Science Apps, which run on the SPOTTERON platform, live in action to USB microscopes and smartphone lenses for tryout.
