EcoWatch
Field observations should survive patchy networks, tired hands, and the interval between noticing something and returning to a desk.
field-conditions
Paper, photos, and memory can require reconstruction later. A connected form may look tidy in an office and fail at the moment an observation matters.
offline-contract
Local capture is the primary path, not a degraded fallback. A saved observation must remain reviewable and editable without a network.
captured fact ≠ later interpretation
capture
The prototype demonstrates local observation capture, persistence, and review. Coordinates are useful evidence but not infallible truth.
[trace 4/4] inspect coordinate field
Coordinates remain editable because GPS can be confidently wrong.
sync-assumptions
Transfer must expose pending and failed state. Conflicts and provenance need comprehensible rules before synchronization can be called reliable.
unresolved
Multi-device synchronization, operational security, long-term data governance, and real-program use remain unresolved and require work with practitioners. This prototype makes no environmental outcome claim and has no public build or source link.
