The application adds the quick recording of opportunistic sightings of marine animals (Flash observations). Field observers can also record detailed observations of female sea turtles and monitor nests during the nesting season. The Siren app supports the SWOT standard. The observations collected on the field can then be uploaded to the SIREN website where scientists can analyze the data and use it to create scientific reports, manage their field operations, improve their conservation programs and share valuable conservation information with policy makers.
