Monarch IR Butterfly tracking app
This app will behave passively and actively. In passive mode, the app will scan every so often for IR signals that are checked against a database of IR codes that have been allocated to Monarch Butterflies. If a Monarch is located, the GPS location and IR is captured. As an option, the user is prompted if they want to send a picture of the Monarch discovered.
​
On the backend, the program will log the information for use in the migration path tracking database. This may be publicly shared.
​
In active mode, the app will allow the user to capture non IR tracked Monarchs in clusters or individually. If a cluster is captured, visual AI can be used to count them. In all cases GPS for the captured for the Monarch.
