Description
With the Pl@ntNet app, identify one plant from a picture, and be part of a citizen science project on plant biodiversity.
Pl@ntNet is an application that allows you to identify plants simply by photographing them with your smartphone. Very useful when you don't have a botanist on hand!
Pl@ntNet is also a great citizen science project: all the plants you photograph are collected and analysed by scientists around the world to better understand the evolution of plant biodiversity and to better preserve it.
Pl@ntNet allows you to identify and better understand all kinds of plants living in nature: flowering plants, trees, grasses, conifers, ferns, vines, wild salads, cacti (and many more).
Pl@ntNet can also identify a large number of cultivated plants (in parks and gardens) but this is not its primary purpose. We especially need Pl@ntNet’s users to inventory the wild plants, those that you can observe in nature, but also those that grow on the sidewalks of cities or in the middle of your vegetable garden!
The more visual information you give to Pl@ntNet about the plant you are observing, the more accurate the identification will be. There are indeed many plants that look alike from afar and it is sometimes small details that distinguish two species of the same genus.
Flowers, fruits and leaves are the most characteristic organs of a species and it is them that should be photographed first. But any other detail can be useful, such as thorns, buds or hair on the stem. A photograph of the whole plant is also very useful information, but it is often not sufficient to allow a reliable identification.
At present, Pl@ntNet makes it possible to recognize about 20,000 species. We are still a long way from the 360,000 species living on earth, but Pl@ntNet is getting richer every day thanks to the contributions of the most experienced users among you.
Don't be afraid to contribute yourself! Your observation will be reviewed by the community and may one day join the photo gallery illustrating the species in the application.
The new version of Pl@ntNet released in January 2019 includes many improvements and new features:
-The ability to filter recognized species by genus or family.
-The differentiated data revision that gives more weight to users who have demonstrated the most skills (in particular the number of species observed, validated by the community).
-The re-identification of shared observations, whether yours or those of other users of the application.
-The multi-flora identification that allows you to search for the photographed plant in all the flora of the application and not only in the one you have selected. Very useful when you are not sure what flora to look for.
-The selection of your favorite floras to access them more quickly.
-The navigation at different taxonomic levels in image galleries.
-The mapping of your observations.
-Links to many factsheets.
The web version of the application is also available at the following address: https://identify.plantnet.org/

Ratings and Reviews
Accurate
easy to use and quite accurate.
Images selection from the photos galery for blind on iOS, not work!
Hello, After a long time I used your application and found that its accessibility for blind users has deteriorated. The names of individual plants, families, and other items are read by the voiceover screen reader on the iPhone, reported only as: Information. The names of individual plants are not reported. the application also contains other elements such as buttons or graphics that have no description. I have raised these issues in the past, but unfortunately there has been no improvement. Please again for better accessibility for blind users who use iPhone and have the screen reader function activated, VoiceOver. Thank you. good day. I am blind and in the past I have pointed out the poorer accessibility of some elements in the application. One of the problems is selecting photos from the phone's gallery. individual photos cannot be selected when the phone's photo library is opened. I have Voiceover enabled on my iOS on my phone. thank you for improving accessibility. Peter.
