Objective
View the list of laboratories configured in EnviroAutomate and see their details. Laboratories are the analytical testing facilities that process environmental samples collected during fieldwork. They are shared across all organisations and managed centrally, so they appear as read-only.

Contact Name — the primary contact person at the laboratory.
Phone — the laboratory's phone number.
Email — the laboratory's email address.
