CyberTracker for Android

At-a-glance: CyberTracker for field conservation

CyberTracker is a free Android application from CyberTracker Conservation that helps conservation practitioners collect and manage field observations. It’s designed for use by wildlife monitors and researchers who need a straightforward way to capture data, map locations, and produce reports from the field.

Main capabilities

• Generates reports and exports collected data for analysis and sharing
• Records precise GPS coordinates and supports background location tracking for route logs
• Operates with or without a data connection, including downloadable field maps for offline use
• Available at no cost on the Google Play Store and built specifically for Android devices

Offline use and location features

The app is engineered for remote environments. Users can download maps and continue recording sightings or incidences when there’s no internet service. GPS positions are saved with entries, and the app may require permission to use location services in the background so it can create continuous tracks while you move through the field.

Compatibility and setup requirements

To make full use of CyberTracker you must be registered with at least one of the supported platforms. Compatible systems include:

• KoBoToolbox
• ODK (Open Data Kit)
• ESRI Survey123
• EarthRanger
• SMART
• CyberTracker Online

Depending on the platform you connect to, additional configuration or account access may be necessary before you can sync or upload data.
