Description

The ‘I Spy a Manatee’ mobile app was developed to encourage residents and visitors in Broward County to report manatee sightings in the County’s waterways. The app allows users to:
• Take a picture of the manatee or select the picture from the device’s gallery.
• Report information including number of manatees, type of activity (e.g. feeding, traveling, resting, etc.) and to also report if the manatee is injured or dead.
• During submission of a manatee sighting, users can request to be contacted regarding the sighting, however this is not required.
• If location services or mobile service is not available at the time of the sighting, the user has up to 48 hours to submit the sighting.
• View a map of the County’s waterways with State-regulated manatee protection and boating safety zones. The map can also display the mobile device’s location on the waterway. Even without location services active, the map can still display a nearby location if the user provides a valid address.

Created by Broward County’s Enterprise Technology Services Division and the Environmental Planning and Community Resilience Division.

What’s New

This upgrade also provides an improved experience while viewing Manatee Speed Zones, and selecting manatee activities and counts. Also in this release includes a new and improved tablature navigation on the bottom of the app to quickly jump to Speed Zones, About, and Info while even in the middle of reporting manatee sightings.

Great idea, terrible execution

It looks like Broward county just wasted taxpayer’s money on the crappiest app known to human kind.

So excited to find a way to help report manatee sitings here in Broward County!
I would also love to know about an app to report boats speeding through the manatee zones..
I’ll be on the lookout for manatees!

I don’t see a way to just look at a map of reports ppl have made… that’s the whole reason I wanted it! Where are the manatees? 😫
