The vision for Create Together Day (formerly referred to as a hack-a-thon) has expanded to an inclusive event for any citizen science practitioners with a desire to share great ideas. Collaborate with other conference goers to create products, interfaces, or data visualizations to further your citizen science projects. Options available include creating a Zooniverse project in a day, learning how to effectively use iNaturalist, embedding free volunteer recruiting and management tools from SciStarter, capturing and visualizing location-based data using ArcGIS, creating new education and outreach materials, or discovering how to use virtual/augmented reality in citizen science projects. Eager to work with practitioners that have a wide variety of skills? Add this event to your schedule, and join the experts who will be on hand to help with popular tools. Bring your data, bring your devices, bring your project ideas – leave with something awesome! We’ll supply breakfast, lunch and endless coffee (or water!).
