The City Nature Challenge is a four-day casual event that encourages the public to get out and ask “what’s this?” about the things we see in a day. By using the app iNaturalist, individuals are able to photograph and identify their findings in the natural world. Upon uploading a photograph artificial intelligence software may recommend an ID but ultimately IDs are confirmed by other iNaturalist users.
