12. Data Entry Variety of different data types Single/Multi-valued Validation Data types Mandatory Suggested Lookup lists Auto suggest Drop-down list

13. Data Entry Attachments Auto suggest Image display and capture Desktop upload Mobile camera

14. Editors Global updater Resolve attachments Apply consistency More targeted than EMu global editor Also created by project lead

16. Statistics Simple reporting mechanism Visualisation tool Bar chart Pie chart

18. Example – Herbarium Sheets Problem: Large numbers of sheets requiring digitization. Need to handle as efficiently as possible.

19. Herbarium Sheets Careful analysis of workflow: Apply barcode to each sheet Image each sheet Digitize label information

20. Herbarium Sheets Specialized processes: 1.“Customized” form to create stub records 2.Automated attachment of images to stubs 3.“Crowd-source” form to digitize label 4.Editors to resolve attachments etc. Initial capture into dedicated digitization fields Subsequent resolution using editors etc.
