What we liked:

Simple to use tool that makes it easy for snorkelers and divers to assess coral bleaching and health based on a colour chart (20,000 already distributed). Data collected can be entered into the app and uploaded to the CoralWatch database.  Information about how to use the chart is available in a companion ReefWatch app in Indonesian and English. The CoralWatch Do-It-Yourself Kit and Datasheets are available for free in Indonesian, English, traditional & simplified Chinese, Korean, Arabic, Portuguese, Japanese, Spanish, French, Italian, and German on their website.

What could be better:

Nice tool to interest and involve people in coral health. The research team continues to develop and improve the entire CoralWatch package.
