How does the app work?<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe app collects data from a large social network\u00a0which\u00a0uploads pictures and information about plants. Scientists from four French research organisations including Cirad<\/a>, IRA, Inria\/IRD, and the Tela Botanica\u00a0Network<\/a> developed the app. It is available on iPhone and Android devices, it is essentially\u00a0the\u00a0Shazam<\/a><\/em>\u00a0for plants.<\/p>\nIt features visualization software which recognises many\u00a0plant species, provided they have been\u00a0illustrated well enough in the botanical reference base.<\/p>
<\/div>\nPlantNet currently works on more than 4,100 species of wild flora of the French territory, and the species list is provided through the application. The number of species included and images used by the application grows as more users\u00a0contribute.<\/p>\n
Where to find this app?<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe app is available on iPhone and Android devices. You can download the app on Google Play Store<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"shazam\"](\"https:\/\/albertonrecord.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2016\/07\/shazam.jpg\")
