Field Photos Build the Visual Drought Atlas
 
Are you going to be out and about this Memorial Day weekend, visiting a favorite spot in the outdoors? Help build the Visual Drought Atlas by uploading photos to go.unl.edu/photoatlas. You may recognize this as a continuation of the Field Photos project from several years ago, now hosted at the National Drought Mitigation Center at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. The Visual Drought Atlas is a growing collection of photos showing what different landscapes look like in dry, wet and normal years. 
 
Tech note: You can upload photos from a computer or from a mobile app. To use the app, 1) download the Survey123 app from your device’s app store, 2) navigate togo.unl.edu/photoatlas, and 3) choose app rather than browser. Then 4) follow the prompt to download the survey, and 5) choose “continue without logging in.” After that you can 6) use the web form to provide information about your location and conditions, upload photos, and 7) click the green check mark to Submit.
