Cyber Citizen is a research initiative at Michigan Tech University aimed at creating mobile and web-based tools to facilitate scientists and citizen participation in scientist-led environmental and social research projects. The project has two apps available: Lichen AQ - uses lichen to track air pollution which helps federal land managers. Mushroom Mapper - records and analyzes mushroom habitats. More apps on the way... App users either upload their data to a publicly accessible database or directly to the researchers' project website.
