Digitizing and preserving plant images: Linking plant images and databases for public access

Abstract

Our project continues to develop a database of plant image images dynamically linked to associated scientific data about those images. We strive to research and improve image capture, retrieval, and delivery technologies. Our long-term objectives are to create a digital library for botany including images, digitized botanical references and "born" digital data. All content and research resulting from this project is freely available through the Internet.
