Citizen Science GIS Data Collection

Citizen Science was a project of the National Science Foundation grant. In this program, my team walked up and down the beach in Hopkins, Belize and gathered data with residents about beach debris. We were able to analyze which parts of the beach had the most types of trash and help the community determine how best to deal with the debris. Think about what location data you may have that needs to be gathered with community members! For example, where are there the most trees in the city of Detroit? What vacant lots have the most blight and need to be turned into parks?
