Our Citizen Science team has hosted over 70 bioblitzes in 8 Bay Area counties since 2013, amounting to over 40,000 iNat observations. Explore our past projects here!
Our bioblitzes are powered by iNaturalist, our in-house, citizen science platform. It's a community-powered website and app that makes it easy to upload and share your observations in the field and to get help from other users with flora and fauna IDs.
A selection of videos, articles, and press that offer a closer look at citizen science at the Academy.
