Synopsis

Interactive Herbarium – Imagine an interactive herbarium developed by high schools students that allows the public to use smart phone technology to identify a variety of plants. Marine Academy of Science and Technology students at Monmouth County Vocational School District collect indigenous plant species from various habitats of the ecosystem. The species location is recorded and mapped using a GPS system. With the aid of smart phones, the public can access a QR Code that links them to a student-designed Wiki containing detailed information.
