Careful collection and organization of biological specimens and their associated data are at the core of field research (e.g., ecology, genetics). Fieldwork data are often collected by handwriting or unsystematically via an electronic device (e.g., laptop), a process that is time-intensive, disorganized, and may lead to transcription errors, as data are copied to a more permanent repository. is an iOS and Android application that is designed to ease the process of collecting biological specimen data in the field (data associated with biological samples, such as location, age, and sex). In addition to biological specimen data, allows for the assignment of photographs to each collected sample, which provides visual records of each specimen in its environment. outputs biological specimen data in a tabular format, facilitating subsequent analyses and dissemination. Despite the simplicity of , no similar data management application is readily available for researchers.
仔细收集和整理生物标本及其相关数据是野外研究（如生态学、遗传学）的核心。野外工作数据通常通过手写或通过电子设备（如笔记本电脑）非系统地收集，这个过程耗时、杂乱，并且在将数据复制到更永久的存储库时可能会导致转录错误。[应用程序名称]是一款适用于iOS和安卓系统的应用程序，旨在简化在野外收集生物标本数据的过程（与生物样本相关的数据，如位置、年龄和性别）。除了生物标本数据外，[应用程序名称]还允许为每个收集的样本分配照片，这提供了每个标本在其环境中的视觉记录。[应用程序名称]以表格形式输出生物标本数据，便于后续分析和传播。尽管[应用程序名称]很简单，但研究人员却很难找到类似的数据管理应用程序。
