New Koala App launched – I Spy Koala
The NSW Government has launched a new app – I Spy Koala.
The app allows community members to record their sightings of koalas in the wild.
App users can enter information about the location and condition of the koala, as well as photos and other information.
Data from the app will be available for access through the interactive NSW Government Sharing and Enabling Environmental Data (SEED) portal. The SEED Portal was developed with and for the community of New South Wales as a central place for everyone to find data about the environment.
Reporting koala sightings is essential to help koalas in the wild. Better information about koalas leads to better koala conservation and better planning decisions.
The app is available for download for Apple and Android devices.
Important: If you see an injured koala, please call your local wildlife rehabilitation group for help.
