the progress of science by involving more people and embracing new
ideas. Recent projects use software and apps to do science more
efficiently. However, existing citizen science software and databases
are ad hoc, non-interoperable, non-standardized, and isolated, resulting
in data and software siloes that hamper scientific advancement. This
project will develop new software and integrate existing software, apps,
and data for citizen science - allowing expanded discovery, appraisal,
exploration, visualization, analysis, and reuse of software and data.
Over the three phases, the software of two platforms, CitSci.org and
CyberTracker, will be integrated and new software will be built to
integrate and share additional software and data. The project will: (1)
broaden the inclusivity, accessibility, and reach of citizen science;
(2) elevate the value and rigor of citizen science data; (3) improve
interoperability, usability, scalability and sustainability of citizen
science software and data; and (4) mobilize data to allow
cross-disciplinary research and meta-analyses.
