    Thanks for sharing and highlighting stories from people like Steve and Colin.
    I'd be very interested to know more about how efficient and accurate the recording of data is through the phone and if there is opportunity to improve this end-to-end process to make it easier to capture more accurate information in a timely manner.
    You may also be interested to learn how the Environment Agency are using technology such as Minecraft to engage communities through schools and children to increase inclusion and awareness. In their case this is for flooding and initial project related to Preston (search for "BBC minecraft environment agency") to learn more.
