Description
About the Atlas
The Atlas of Living Australia (ALA) is Australia’s national biodiversity database. Founded on the principle of data sharing – collect it once, share it, use it many times – the ALA provides free, online access to millions of occurrence records to form the most comprehensive and accessible data set on Australia’s biodiversity ever produced.
By aggregating biodiversity information and making it more available online, the ALA is assisting scientists, planners, managers and others to create a more detailed picture of Australia’s biodiversity. The ALA is used for research, environmental monitoring, conservation planning and management, education, and citizen science activities.
Our impact
By enabling science, industry and decision makers to work more efficiently, we impact many diverse areas of Australian biodiversity research and sustainability practice.
We are an essential resource for biodiversity conservation, sustainable ecosystem development, new species discoveries, systematics (relationships between living things), taxonomy (naming and classification), digitisation of biological collections, natural resource management and environmental impact assessments.
Please note that we are iteratively improving this app and encourage constructive user input into improving it. Please provide input via support-biocollect@ala.org.au

3 ★ Won't let me submit records without a photo. It's not always possible to photograph birds etc that you might only catch a glimpse of, but still be very confident of ID.
2 ★ I had enjoyed it but right now it's not working. It can't find anything at all in my area, which I know is false as I've used this app many times.
5 ★ The only app for Australia of this kind based on the brilliant Atlas of Living Australia Resource. The new update makes the app far more user friendly. One thing I would like to see is plants included in the results for area exploration which I'm fairly sure used to be included. Otherwise a brilliant resource and would recommend for anyone in the environmental science, ecology or biology fields as well as naturalists of any experience.
1 ★ Explore your area option does not show any results. When I do a search for species in an area on the map....I keep getting No Results.
1 ★ Species search does not work, and species list for your location continually flicks back to first sceen
1 ★ App does not work. There are no living things in my area. Sezrches do not producd any results. Crap. Uninstalling
1 ★ "Explore" just comes up with no species for your area
1 ★ Apparently there are no living creatures or plants in Hobart..
3 ★ The record upload system is not allowing me to log into my ALA account. That prevents the record capture subsystem from working.
2 ★ I'm cyY vvg I my a sepleasant night z zt
3 ★ The vegetation records could be stsndardised or linked to a standard databse
5 ★ Love the Explore Species function
