Taxon Functions And Usability

This is version 2. It is not the current version, and thus it cannot be edited.
[Back to current version]   [Restore this version]


Functions to implement (SeekTaxonTools)

Current Focus

1. TCS creation function
  • create TCS from user input data

2. Viewing in multiple ways (for scientists/policy makers too)

  • Interactive function for viewing existing matching concepts and decision making

3. Visualization Function (Small scale)

  • Filter by different attributes, View and edit info in TOS in different manners

4. Multi-classification Visualization function (Large scale down to small)

  • Several trees - see multiple matching concepts from a query within their classification trees

Backend or later

5. EML taxonomic data creation - function to create whatever EML group decides upon (EML group)
  • plugin to Morpho

6. Other Schema to TCS mapping (behind the scenes)

  • XSLT transform?

7. Merge datasets (later)

  • need input from SEEK
  • unified concepts for 2 datasets containing taxa that can be analyzed together
  • important, but later, many issues

8. Peer Review function (low priority)

  • Way to filter for UNPUBLISHED data in the TOS for particular user/editor community
  • Use visualization function

Personas

Ronald

  • Community ecologist
  • Taxonomic expertise in particular taxa in geographic region
  • keep track of community
  • use taxonomic data available to improve classification of community
  • capture info
  • datasets persist over time for monitoring and consistency in treatment
  • data compatible with similar efforts in other geo areas
