Global Forest Watch launches mobile app Forest Watcher

GFW launched the new Forest Watcher mobile app today, designed to bring our powerful, real-time forest change data directly into the hands of people monitoring forests on the ground. 

Developed in partnership with the Jane Goodall Institute and Vizzuality, Forest Watcher allow users to monitor and report forest change, straight from a mobile device. The app will help bring real-time forest change data directly into the hands of people monitoring forests on the ground – even in areas without internet connectivity.  

 You can download the Forest Watcher app for free through the Apple Store or Google Play Store. 

 You can also check out the Forest Watcher tutorials here or sign up for the Introduction to Forest Watcher Webinar, happening on September 28
