iNaturalist has established itself as the preferred platform (app & web) for recording observations of organisms using geo referenced photos etc. It should be a simple matter to extend functionality to allow temporal observations of localities.

Hi Mary

This might have something helpful:  https://www.keytonature.eu/wiki/

It is a EU project from a few years ago that looked to provide keys and encourage citizen recording of biodiversity via mobile devices, so they did create apps that a user can use to take a pic, then upload it automatically to a central repository, with standard metadata I believe, which sounds similar  to your requirements.

I think it was the Italian contingent that did most of that work, and their national project page, including contact details, is here:  https://www.keytonature.eu/wiki/Italia

Cheerio, Mike

I am interested in encouraging people to record standardized images of a location and saving them to a web site, with appropriate metadata, so that they could be used to track changes over time at that location.  I know this sort of work is done, but I would appreciate being told of a program, web site and or organization that brings such resources together the way collection networks bring specimen data together.
