Notes

Just a short call to let Aaron know what he needed to send to Bob and Mike so taxon names and the VegBank data can be validated.

To Do

Aaron

  • By end of the day on Friday:
    • Create a query to check that Aaron’s scripts 1) correctly concatenate the verbatim family + raw taxon name (including morphospecies) *prior* to sending to the TNRS and 2) display correctly the resolved name returned by the TNRS. Do this for VegBank taxon names.
    •  Run the plot output queries on the VegBank data in VegBIEN. Let Mike know where the results tables are and give him access to them.

Bob

  • Review how the taxon names are being formed. (within a week)

Mike

  • Compare the results of the queries Aaron runs to queries you run directly against VegBank. (will take a while; keep us informed as you progress)
