Interactive visualization of BCI data

[Mike Giddens]

I mentioned I was going to show something cool well here it is. I
wanted to show a real case using the new SilverMapper application and
I thought the BCI data would be a perfect example. My full writeup is
on my website at:
http://www.silverbiology.com/blog/2009/01/04/biodiversity-collection-index-visualization/

or you can go directly to the tool at: http://labs.silverbiology.com/biocol

Make sure to zoom in and also try out the Search "collection type and
size filter". From my findings most sizes are only recorded for
herbaria collections.

And as always comments welcome and anywould is welcome to reference to
this lab project.

Note: The locations are georeferenced using Google Maps geocoding
service since 99% of the records do not have a given lat/long. So you
may find a few collections missing or not in the exact location due to
the accuracy of Google's service.

Cheers,

-Mike

Mike,

This looks like a great application. I think we need more georef data
though!
