Plant Recognition Group: "Getting to Know Plant Datasets" with Anna Monro
You are here
Anna Monro, of the Centre for Australian National Biodiversity Research, will focus on electronic plant databases: Australian Plant Census (APC), Australian Plant Name Index (APNI), Australian Plant Image Index (APII), Australian Virtual Herbarium (AVH) and possibly other national and state/territory plant nomenclature and related datasets. Various datasets will be displayed on the large screen, with explanations of what they are and how to navigate them. Participants may be able to mirror the presenter on their personal devices.
When you book for the session, could you suggest a particular species to be investigated, please? No prior knowledge of these datasets is necessary.
When: 2:00pm until 4:00pm, including some free time for practical work Thursday 17 October 2024.
Where: Celia Rosser Room, Banksia Centre, ANBG
