Field Play Magdalena S. Donahue content to become available when the user is within a set proximity of the feature (e.g., audio alert when approaching a fault zone). Additionally, users are given the option to interactively explore topical and location-based sub-modules that include AR binoculars, informational text, audio, topographic and geologic maps, and short YouTube lessons while in the field. Field Play content is both trip-specific and stand-alone. Content exists within the Field Play ecosystem at two levels: curated, scientific content created by Field Play, and crowd sourced data originated by users. Both of these data types are fully “mashable,” and can be combined by users to create personal topical or location-based trips using our trip creation tool. Field Play content can be accessed online as well as via mobile device. We are working to expand our curated and crowd-sourced content to provide an up-to-date, easily accessible resource of reliable geologic and scientific information for recreational, educational or professional use. Conclusions Field Play is an augmented reality educational and experiential tool that integrates geoscience educational content with the physical world. Built to run on Android mobile devices, the Field Play system is based around the creation of a data-rich landscape through which users engage in locationaware content to explore their environment through geologic field trips. Field Play has two goals: 1) Improving access to abundant scientific information while in the field, and 2) Promoting scientific education on a large scale, in a way that is personal, relevant, and interest-driven. Field Play was incorporated into the New Mexico Geological Society Fall Field Conference (Donahue and Donahue, 2014). This three-day trip in southern New Mexico included AR stops, annotated photographs, audio content of critical features, and links to guidebook and other pertinent scientific publications. For this trip, Field Play created predetermined routes based on conference road logs, as well as free-standing supplementary content. As formal geoscience education grapples with the relevance and feasibility of field methods courses, and as communication within and across progressively specific geoscience branches becomes increasingly critical in the world of large data sets and interdisciplinary science experiments, tools such as Field Play that facilitate exploration, learning, and communication are of vital importance. Field Play is one attempt to bring evolving digital tools into a field-based science, and to do so in a way that benefits a range of audiences. Field Play is currently (Fall 2017) offline, undergoing major revision and update. 112 Mapping Meaning, the Journal
