A competition has been launched by Natural England to design an app that will appeal to mobile device users and help them to engage with nature with the app that best helps bring people closer to nature to win a £5,000 prize.
Natural England writes:
The app should be innovative, available to as many people as possible on Android, Windows Mobile, or iOS and offer new or improved ways for people to get the most from nature.
Designers can take advantage of the wealth of data available on Natural England’s data download site. Over 100 geographical datasets are available under the Open Government Licence you are encouraged to use these in your app, although it is not a requirement. You may use any data or information so long as you have the permission of the data owner.
