DATA QUALITY MISSION

Make every report useful

Add photo, precise coordinates, size/count and habitat context. High-quality observations are easier to verify and reuse.

MULTI-SOURCE EXPLORATION

Live Mediterranean map

Your sightings remain visually and scientifically distinct from GBIF and OBIS public biodiversity records.

My sightingsGBIFOBISPublic layers are opt-in, source-labeled and never treated as AegeanGuard verification.
EXPLAINABLE FIELD TRIAGE

Smart ID

Fast, explainable field identification from a photo preview and visible traits. Results are guidance, not expert confirmation.

Photo processing stays on your device. If you save a sighting, the compressed evidence photo is stored locally with it.

CITIZEN SCIENCE REPORTING

Designed for fast entry in the field, with enough structure for later scientific screening.

HOW IT WORKS

Explainable, not predictive theater

The V3 score weights species hazard, recency, distance, report quality and local review state. It is an awareness signal from available evidence — not a safety guarantee or ecological forecast.

LIVE MARINE CONTEXT

Sea Now

Fetch real marine-model context for a coordinate: sea-surface temperature, waves, currents and sea level. Useful context for field observations — never a navigation product.

Field context, not navigation. Marine model data can be inaccurate close to shore and must not replace nautical forecasts, lifeguards or local authorities.

Fast identification cues, safety guidance and ecological context for Mediterranean users.

LOW-FRICTION SEA MODE

Fisher Mode

Large one-tap controls for catches and gear incidents, optimized for gloves, glare and weak connectivity.

LOCAL LOG

SEA MODE

Hands-busy controls

Incidents remain local. Everything in Fisher Mode remains available offline and can be exported whenever you choose.

TRUST & MODERATION

DATA OWNERSHIP

Backup, restore & portability

Export the complete local AegeanGuard state — reports, photo evidence, Fisher Mode incidents, watch zone and preferences — then restore it on another browser. Nothing is silently uploaded.

SAFETY FIRST

See it. Keep distance. Report it.

AegeanGuard is an awareness and reporting tool. It does not replace emergency services, poison specialists, lifeguards or medical care.

HIGH PRIORITY

Silver-cheeked toadfish / Lagocephalus sceleratus

Do not eat it.

It can contain tetrodotoxin, a potent neurotoxin. If ingestion is suspected, seek emergency medical help and contact the Poison Center immediately.

DOKeep the specimen away from food and children.Photograph from a safe distance.Record location and time.
DO NOTEat, taste or prepare it.Handle unknown fish unnecessarily.Rely on the app for diagnosis or treatment.

Marine Safety • Species Watch
YOUR COAST, IN ONE APP

Understand the sea around you.

Explore hazardous and invasive species, check marine conditions and save sightings in guest mode — or sign in to sync them with the AegeanGuard Network.

Identify unfamiliar speciesPhoto preview + explainable visible-trait matching.
Read live marine contextSea-surface temperature, waves and currents when online.
FIELD READY

Turn an encounter into useful evidence.

Save GPS, time, photo, size, habitat and environmental context in a structured observation that still works offline.

Location only when you askAegeanGuard requests foreground GPS from a button — never background tracking.
You control photo sharingGuest evidence stays in the local media vault. Signed-in reports sync photos only when you publish them to the Network.

SAFETY BEFORE CURIOSITY

Keep distance. Know the hazard.

Some Mediterranean species can sting, envenomate or be dangerous to eat. AegeanGuard gives awareness guidance, not medical diagnosis.

Privacy-first by designGuest mode stays local. Signed-in users explicitly sync reports to the AegeanGuard Network; no advertising SDK is used.
Transparent public sourcesGBIF, OBIS, OpenStreetMap and marine-model data are clearly labeled.
HELP IMPROVE AEGEANGUARD

Tell us what happened.

Bug, confusing screen, missing species or idea — short feedback is enough. Diagnostic context never includes your password or exact private observation coordinates.

PRIVACY CENTER

Your data, under your control.

ON THIS DEVICE

Saved sightings, photos, Fisher Mode logs, drafts, watch zone and preferences.

WHEN ONLINE

Map tiles and optional GBIF/OBIS/Open-Meteo requests use internet access. If you sign in, profile, report and social actions are sent to the AegeanGuard Network. No advertising identifier is used.
