Tracking satellite-tagged turtles for fun and science.
When the Gnaraloo Wilderness Foundation needed to track its satellite-tagged turtles for a world-first science project, BRAINS delivered the app. With Turtle Tracker, scientists and the public can follow sea turtles on their incredible journeys in real time, with heat maps showing where they spend the most time feeding.
“The world-first Turtle Tracker App for tracking migrating turtles in real-time has not only been invaluable in raising awareness of our conservation program, it has also revealed the incredibly long journeys our turtles make in a way that is easy to understand and follow.”
Karen Hattingh, Chair, Gnaraloo Wilderness Foundation
