BGBM Collection Management Software links v17-02-2007 Thu, 01/17/2008 - 14:05
This page lists software which is used in collection management. It is an uncritical listing, the software has not been tested or approved by the subgroup in any way. The selection is based on the following criteria:
- The software helps to manage specimens or observations of biological objects ("units"). Taxonomic tools helping to generate checklists etc. are not included if they do not include unit management functions.
- The software must be functional and in use by at least one collection (however, some beta versions have been included).
- The software must be freely available (for free or as a commercial product).
- It should not need re-programming to be adapted by the new user.
- Some help in the installation of the software should be available from the authors.
The Mycology.Net Tue, 11/10/2009 - 09:57The Mycology.Net has been established as a non-commercial scientific data platform for linking mycological and lichenological websites in a structured way.
The Mycology.Net aims to
* provide access to online data on the biodiversity of fungi, including lichens, especially their taxonomy, distribution, phylogeny, descriptive characters, collections, literature etc.
* inform about mycological institutions, journals, databases (link sections) and persons engaged in mycology
* reach scientists all over the world and invite them to use the platform and to help improving the quality and quantity of data
* maintain a discussion forum for mycological subjects and the further development of the platform itself
