In the app Reporting tab you can upload photos and descriptions. All reports are saved in the CyanoAlert App database. Submitted reports may be accessed by CyanoAlert Service staff to use information on bloom existence, water colour and photographs for satellite product validation purposes.

Once submitted, all users’ reports appear on the main map in the app using the colour coding from the reported Water Colour category. The location coordinates and the last 3 reports are shown (colour coded), when the user taps on the report pin.
