Roadkill | SPOTTERON 4.0.2

The "Roadkill" application, developed as part of a citizen science initiative by the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (BOKU) in Vienna, Austria, facilitates the reporting of roadkill sightings to contribute to a significant database. This project is powered by SPOTTERON, a platform designed for citizen science applications optimized for smartphones.

By documenting instances of roadkill, users provide valuable data that aids in the scientific assessment of this pressing issue. Such contributions enable researchers to identify specific hotspots where roadkill incidents frequently occur. Consequently, this information can inform interventions like the construction of wildlife crossings, which are crucial for facilitating safe migration routes for species such as toads and frogs. Collaborating with NGOs and local authorities enhances the effectiveness of these initiatives.

Roadkill | SPOTTERON integrates seamlessly with OpenStreetMap and is tailored for modern smartphone use. Users may easily create their SPOTTERON account within the app to begin documenting roadkill sightings.
