Contenido: | TICs can be a great ally to deal with the global increase in pest and disease invasions in forestry, providing tools for early detection of health issues and allowing the deployment of management strategies. The pest and disease recognition smartphone app P-FOR INIA, has been available for 4 years for foresters, students and general public. Here we assess its potential as a tool for early alert of new sanitary issues in commercial plantations. The app contains a library, a symptom key, and a query module. The latter enables users to take georeferenced pictures and post a query about the observed signs, symptoms or organisms. The queries are sent to a central database and answered by a group of forest health experts. This tool allows incidental data collection on distribution and seasonality of key forest pests and diseases. In the last year, a new strategy for involving forester in data collection via directed requests was implemented. By using push messages via the app, we asked the users to look for particular signs or symptoms. This has proven useful to locate local pest resurgence for the release of biological control agents. We are also working on the integration of the data collected by P-FOR INIA into phytosanitary official databases.
