An iOS / Swift app for recording observations geographically

A simple app, that lets users record and categorise observations on a map and attatch additional details including: date/time, description, contatcs, multi-media, geo-data and tags.

It was developed with the aim of learning more about Swift and iOS development, specificially around working with maps, date-times, contacts, searching, auth and offline caching.

• User registration and authentication
• Add geographical observations and attatchments
• List saved observations, or view them on a map
• View details of any given observation, and edit
• Cache unsaved data for upload, when offline

Since this app was developed in 2015, and using Swift V1, many of the concepts and internal APIs may have changes, likely making a lot of the code obsolete. And because it was just built as a learning exercise, and the app doesn't really have any real-world uses, it isn't actively maintained.

The iOS-Observation-Tracker by @OlliePoole is very similar, and is probably much better written.

Clone the repo, run pod install to fetch dependencies, then open the workspace in xcode. From there you can launch the simulator, build the app, and run the unit tests.
