Oman - iNaturalist World Tour
We're in Oman for the 142nd stop on the iNaturalist World Tour. Oman is located on the southeastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula with the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen to the west. The top 10 observers are @jack246, @trcarlisle, @sindic, @mnauky, @yu16, @tbrooks, @luca63, @andreas_boe, @toutterrain, and @beidts.
The number of observations per month remains jagged but increased around 2018.
The top 5 identifiers are @sammyboy2059, @cliygh-and-mia, @rajibmaulick, @greenline, and @tom-kirschey-nabu
.
What can we do to get more people in Oman using iNaturalist? Please share your thoughts below.

Oman is a fascinating country and there are many people there who are genuinely interested in the environment. The written-language barrier is tough for native Arabic speakers, even those educated abroad with good oral English skills. To encourage more Omanis to use iNaturalist (not just English-speaking ex-pats who are mostly there temporarily), there would have to be some way to accommodate Arabic script input on this platform together with automatic translation into tolerable English. I'm sure that will eventually become possible, but .probably not for some years.
