In these times where globalization has reached practically all the places of the world, bringing great benefits to humanity, it has too inverse consequences. One of them, is the rapid expansion of invasive species since it is almost impossible to prevent them from reaching the different places on the planet. This has created a growing problem in not being able to detect and classify these threats in time, so that one of the drawbacks is the lack of up-to-date information. This combined with lack of resources and / or interest as a priority of some entities, in the long term creates a bigger problem as it becomes difficult to control.

Perhaps the best solution is therefore to provide an appropriate tool to interested individuals or groups with the surveillance and detection of invasive species in an easy, fast and constantly updated way without having to spend large amounts of resources.
