ObsIdentify

ObsIdentify is a unique mobile application that allows users to easily identify wild animals, plants, and mushrooms in Europe and the Dutch Caribbean. This innovative app utilizes advanced image recognition technology, powered by millions of observations from thousands of users on popular nature observation platforms such as Waarneming.nl, Waarnemingen.be, and Observation.org. Developed in collaboration with the Observation International Foundation, Naturalis Biodiversity Center, and Natuurpunt, ObsIdentify is a reliable and accurate tool for nature enthusiasts and researchers alike.

With ObsIdentify, users can simply take a photo of a wild animal, plant, or mushroom and the app will quickly analyze the image to provide a species identification. This makes it a convenient and efficient tool for identifying unfamiliar species while out in nature. However, it's important to note that ObsIdentify is specifically designed for wild species and should not be used for identifying selfies, people, pets, or domestic plants found in gardens or homes.

What sets ObsIdentify apart from other identification apps is its vast database of observations from multiple sources. By utilizing data from Waarneming.nl, Waarnemingen.be, and Observation.org, ObsIdentify is able to provide accurate identifications based on a large pool of information. This also means that the app is constantly learning and improving, making it a valuable resource for both amateur and professional naturalists.

ObsIdentify is a product of the Observation International Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and supporting nature observation and conservation efforts. By using this app, users are not only able to identify species, but also contribute to the larger goal of understanding and protecting the natural world. So whether you're a curious hiker, a passionate nature photographer, or a dedicated researcher, ObsIdentify is the perfect tool to enhance your nature experience and knowledge.
