# Flutter Development for Conservation and Field Apps

> Yuma IT builds production Flutter apps for wildlife monitoring, conservation science, and field data collection across remote Australia. Offline-first, running at national scale, already in the hands of researchers and citizen scientists.

## Our Flutter work

### National Koala Monitoring Program ($10M program of work)

We maintain three production Flutter apps (Koala Counter, Koala Spotter, and Feral Counter) as part of Australia's largest koala monitoring initiative. Researchers and citizen scientists use them in remote field conditions, so they're built offline-first to work where there is no connectivity. Reference: https://nkmp.org.au/populations.php

### SpottedKoala ($800K research initiative)

A Flutter app built for the University of the Sunshine Coast as part of a high-tech koala tracking research project. We're working with USC to add Bluetooth-based koala detection so the app can pick up real-time proximity alerts from solar-powered ear tags deployed across South East Queensland.

### SpaceCows: feral animal management (NAILSMA / Telstra / Microsoft / CSIRO)

Flutter apps built as part of the SpaceCows program for feral animal monitoring and management across northern Australia, including the Ferals Survey and Record Aerial Shooting apps. Reference: https://spacecows.com.au/fileadmin/user_upload/Download-files/FeralsSurvey_RecordAerialShooting.pdf

## Our approach

Most of our Flutter work sits close to conservation science, Indigenous land management, and mobile field data collection. These are contexts where connectivity is poor, environments are hard on devices, and the app has to keep working anyway.

Every app we build is designed for that: offline-first data, careful battery and bandwidth use, interfaces that hold up in gloves and direct sunlight, and sync strategies that survive days without a signal.

## Need a Flutter app for the field?

Conservation monitoring, field research, remote data collection, Indigenous land management. Tell us what you're trying to do and we'll let you know how Flutter can help.
