    • Organism Classification

      Classify species or specimens for use in the Organism Visual Identification and Organism Browser applications. Organisms are placed in a taxonomic hierarchy. Identification characters and character states are assigned to each level in the hierarchy. This results in a multi-access identification key. Images can be assigned to characters and character states to aid identification. Tags can be assigned at any level of the hierarchy. These tags provide and alternate way to search for organisms.

    • Organism Visual Identification

      Identify species or specimens setup in Organism Classification by answering questions based on the characters and character states specified. As questions are answered the list of applicable organisms gets less, until an organism is identified.

      Tags search can also be used to aid identification.

    • Organism Visual Browser

      Visually browse species or specimens setup in Organism Classification and view relevant information about the organism.
