The Patapsco Heritage Greenway (PHG) and the Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR) help preserve Maryland’s natural resources along the Patapsco River. PHG oversees volunteers who take on various roles ranging from litter cleanup to identification, while DNR works in conjunction with PHG in clean-up efforts. Both PHG and DNR seek to enhance their data collection methods and promote litter clean-up in the communities surrounding the Patapsco River. This proposed project will create functional wireframes for a mobile application that will allow users to report litter, see litter trends, and identify areas that need attention. The information collected needs to be sorted cleanly and concisely to identify data trends that can help create targeted programs to eliminate litter’s primary sources. This document describes the project deliverables and objectives and serves as a formal reference to the data collection, research, and wireframing process.
