ARIA Beekeeping

ARIA is a beekeeping app built around a free nectar-flow map. For any place on Earth the map estimates whether bees have a nectar flow now, whether it is rising or falling, and what is flowering this month and next, from open data: flowering observations from iNaturalist photos, satellite greenness and the weather. The map needs no account, and every reading has a button to report that it is wrong.

Around the map is a record app for beekeepers:

• Visits you speak instead of type; the form fills itself, and it works offline in the field
• A medicine record with withdrawal periods
• Honey batches sealed with a QR page that shows the season's records; the records are timestamped so they cannot be changed later
• Where Asian and other hornets, small hive beetle and Tropilaelaps have been recorded nearby, and an alert when fire satellites see a hotspot near an apiary
• The beekeeping rules for 31 countries, and official record books printed from your visits
• A weekly email with the flow and the days fit for flying

It runs in the browser and can be installed on Android and iPhone. English, Spanish and Turkish. The map and records are free; Pro ($6 a month or $60 a year) adds more AI credits, unlimited honey QR batches and a "buy from this beekeeper" button on the jar's page.
