anymals.org is a new tool for information and logging purposes of local biodiversity. The main purpose of anymals is to inform people about the biodiversity around their current location. The core component is the anymals client. An ANDROID® App which retrieves Biodiversity information dependent on the users location from the GBIF and anymals Databases, and presents the available Information with automatically localized names (English, German are available right now) and a picture of the occurring species. Further information about the species is provided by a direct connection to the corresponding Wikipedia article. Furthermore the anymals software allow the end user to log sightings, of every species available, and if not, the user can create the species entry himself on the anymals.org web platform and share it with everyone. Every observervation can then will be directly fed into GBIF. We hope that this software can bridge the skilled observing community with a rapidly growing smartphone market. Such an active community could highly increase the input of current local biodiversity information into GBIF with huge benefits for the scientific community.
