Research is set to be conducted on sharks following a fatal attack last year at Waihi Beach.
Kaelah Marlow died after the 19-year-old was attacked by a great white shark.
The just-released Coroner's report notes more information on sharks could be important.
Now, a project has been launched to track sharks in an app after receiving more than $30,000 in donations.
Research lead Dr Riley Elliott told Mike Hosking it can keep people safe and informed.
He says it communicates information about distribution, habitats, and behaviour of sharks and how they overlap with humans.
