Colorado Wetlands Mobile App: a user's guide
No full textPrepared for: EPA Region 8 Wetlands Program.December 2015.The Colorado Wetlands Mobile App delivers information about Colorado's wetlands to users via smartphones or tablets. It was created by the Colorado Natural Heritage Program (CNHP) through a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 8 Wetland Program Development Grant (WPDG). The App is free and available to the public from the major App distribution points, including Apple App Store and Google Play Store. CNHP's main objective in creating the App was to provide wetland professionals and public citizens alike with information to guide conservation and appreciate of the state's value wetland resource
Grote verdeeldheid over wenselijkheid van de corona-app
No full textDe overheid wil een corona-app introduceren. Met keuze-experimenten onderzoeken we de voorkeuren van Nederlanders voor de inrichting van deze app. Beleidsmakers kunnen de uitkomsten gebruiken om het draagvlak voor de app en het aantal mensen dat deze installeert te vergroten. IN HET KORT: ●●Een op de drie Nederlanders zegt de corona-app sowieso te zulleninstalleren, een op de drie sowieso niet en een op de drie twijfelt.●●Voorstanders vertrouwen de overheid bij de omgang met dedata, terwijl tegenstanders de overheid wantrouwen.●●Het advies dat Nederlanders aan de overheid geven over de appverschilt nauwelijks van de beslissing die ze zelf zouden nemen.Transport and Logistic

From stage to screen: adapting a children's theatre production into a digital toy
No full textThis photo essay explores the adaptation of the Scottish theatre for early years (TEY) production White into a transmedia digital toy. In 2013, Catherine Wheels Theatre Company commissioned an app developer, Hippotrix, to create an app for mobile tablet computers and smartphones inspired by the world of White.
The paper outlines the process of creating White The App, including wire-framing, asset capture, sound recording, coding and prototyping. It also explores the impact of design decisions on dramaturgy and performativity, noting that digital media offer new possibilities for embracing non-linear storytelling while retaining key aspects of the live aesthetic.Publisher PD

FIRST AID APP
No full textIn this paper research, author presents a first aid android app assistance given to any person suffering a sudden illness and injury in emergency case. Author himself had been experience in many emergency cases when somebody around us had suffering a sudden injury. This app provides simple step by step instructions for guide user through everyday first aid scenario. Next, first aid apps provide user the videos and animation for easy learning. The user can call 999 the emergency number for the app at any time.
Once the user downloads this android app from the Google Play Store then they can use this app without using internet connection. Preloaded content means the users have instant access to all safety information at any time even without reception or an Internet connection as offline mode. Then, this app provides the interactive quizzes that allow the user to earn rank that they can share with their friends and show off their lifesaving knowledge In emergency case, the user will use what type of illness or injury that happen then simple step by step instructions, animation and videos will provide for each scenario. The user can call 999 the emergency number if illness or injury is more critical and need ambulance. The user can use the step as safety tips and treatment for minor conditions while wait for ambulance arrive at the place. There are many situations that require first aid app and it can be used by untrained person
Spreading word: author frequency of app user reviews
No full textApp stores allow developers to publish new updates directly to users. Users evaluate and leave public reviews of their opinions and experiences for others to see. App ratings and reviews are a purchase determinant for users, and are free user-based usability tests. Existing literature offers approaches to extract information from or to summarise app reviews, but what can we say about the authors themselves? We analysed about 8.7 million iOS app reviews written by over 5.5 million unique authors. We found that 71.5% of authors only wrote one review. Only 13,224 instances of authors re-reviewing were observed, by 12,667 authors for 3,345 apps
Testing mobile app based data gathering in the Phetchaburi River Basin and possible applications
No full textThe Phetchaburi River in Phetchaburi province, Thailand, has a watershed with many different water resource projects. The surrounding farms rely on the Phetchaburi River for irrigation water and the drinking water companies rely on it as a source of water. However, the Phetchaburi basin has problems with yearly floods, salt intrusion and pollution. Water monitoring stations in the region are scarce. A new telemetering system has been put in place, but due to the cost of these stations they are few in number. This project presents a showcase for a cheap and robust water monitoring system in terms of both quantity through water level data and quality through various water quality parameters using apps on an android or iPhone device to gather and analyse the data. The app from Mobile Water Management (MWM) is used to measure the water level through reading a photo of a staff gauge. The Akvo app uses various methods like electronic devices and reading strips via a photo to measure several water quality parameters. It was proven that construction of the staff gauges needed for the MWM app is cheap and does not require highly skilled workers. The resulting data is reliable, if the app is handled by someone trained in handling the app, and/or the data that is created is checked by a trained person. The fact that the pictures taken by the app are uploaded to the database makes for easy verification of the data. This makes verification of telemetric data possible, which as it turns out is not always reliable when compared to the MWM data. The Akvo app has a similar advantage in the sense that verification of the data at a later moment is not only possible, but also easy. This eliminates several human errors in the data collection process and effectively increases the data quality. Right now, several RID officers are needed to collect this data. Using the Akvo app, the required manpower can be lowered. Data analysis shows that the Phetchaburi River has significant levels fecal contamination (E. coli) and issues with low oxygen concentrations at certain moments. For this reason, it is not recommended to use as recreational, fishing or irrigation water. The boundary between salt and freshwater is constantly changing depending on weather conditions and can cause serious problems for local farmers. When constructing the staff gauge there are multiple possible human errors that need to be avoided in order for the MWM app to work correctly. This mainly has to do with the placement of the staff gauge sticker, keeping it straight and unobstructed and also directed towards the user. It turned out that several of the Akvo strips are not working correctly. Other than that, taking data from many parameters can also be time consuming. We recommend that the RID looks into this method of data collection further, both as a cheap and easy way to expand their water monitoring network, and in the case of the MWM app to verify the effectiveness of the telemetering systems.MP25
