We think citizens should be involved in framing questions, interpreting results, and drawing conclusions. Public Lab began during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill to address the information blackout which Gulf Coast residents faced. We used balloons and kites to send cameras 1000 feet up, taking detailed aerial photos of the spill. Today, our growing community is working on a new generation of tools to make citizen science better. What?
