Ever since I started using iNat I’ve imagined an augmented reality app which shows pop-ups of iNat observations around you as you pan the camera. Walking through a popular hiking spot would show you approximate locations and names of nearly every plant species in the area for example.
This is true. I know I’ve observed a small handful of undescribed leafminers and gall mites. It would take some persistence and effort to make progress with them but the necessary contacts are already on iNat and the resource requirements are well within most peoples’ abilities.
