Unified Butterfly Recorder 4: iOS May 16-14: Mason Berhenke - Blake Burns - Yujin Kok Kyle Long - Matt McKillip - Eric Soland - DJ Todd Client: Reiman Gardens, Nathan Brockman – Anita Westphal Advisor: Dr. Diane Rover Introduction Using the App Butterflies are an indicator species, meaning they can help gauge the effect of environmental changes, whether that be negative, positive, natural, or manmade. An Android application was created in 2013 by a senior design group, and an iOS application was started, but never finished in 2014. Through the demand for an iOS app growing and newer technologies arising came the creation of our team. Problem Solution iOS users are unable to utilize UBR unless they had an extra Android device. Currently, the system requires old-fashion pen and paper which is slow, tedious, and prone to more errors. An iOS app was previously attempted and was not completed. Create an iOS application for UBR. The application will mimic the functionality of the Android application including custom lists, different survey types, and more. If ready, the application would also integrate with the planned UBR Server to allow easy importing/exporting.
