<p class="MsoNormal">Dear List Members,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are currently planning our first real digitization effort and I have been combing through the wealth of information that is available through iDigBio.  I have found just about everything from equipment needs to workflows, fabulous step-by-step
 instructions on post-processing and more!  What I haven’t found much information on is how much time is actually involved in the set-up, image capture, and data processing
<u>per specimen</u>, and the average number of specimens that can be completed per hour/day/week, etc.  I know it varies depending on the collection – documents and botanical specimens seem to be the quickest – but we are specifically interested in fossils
 at this time.  We have a specific sub-set of the collection (approximately 6,000 specimens) we would like to start with so I am trying to figure out a realistic time-frame for completing the project.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Are there any paleo teams out there who could speak to the intricacies of capturing all the necessary views of 3D specimens and the time involved? 
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’d also be interested in recommendations for staffing.  Did your team learn the ins-and-outs on the job or did you hire someone with previous experience?  Pros and cons?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">All replies will be appreciated!  Thank you.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
