Thank you to all the volunteers who have participated in The RBGE Herbarium: Exploring Gesneriaceae, the African violet family. The project data is now available for reuse. For details, see the Results page. All data is presented in an anonymised form. If you used a Zooniverse account to participate in this project and would like to request for your anonymised data to be deleted, please contact research@nationalarchives.gov.uk
Each workflow will ask you to enter information from the labels of herbarium specimens:
Geography (capturing textual information about the country, locality and altitude where the specimen was collected)
Latitude and Longitude (capturing geographical coordinates which enables specimens to be digitally mapped to a point location).
This is one of the new indexed projects on Zooniverse, where you can choose which subjects you want to transcribe.
For more information on how this works see the project FAQ
