 ==== Augmented Ecology ====
-Augmented ecology encompasses everything to do with the mapping and geotagging of ecological features such as edible plants. It can be on a small scale with the objective of [[:augmented_foraging|gleaning]] and [[:augmented_foraging|foraging]] for urban food with the help of mobile apps as with [[:grazing_hermits|Boskoi]] or it can involve the long-term measurement of environmental and ecological systems on a [[:augmented_ecology|global scale]].
