I'm interested in the intersection of online "collections tours" and database web portals, where a virtual visitor can see interactive visuals of collections objects and the storage space and get specimen information. The example that inspired me is from UAMs Virtual Herbarium Tour (<a href="https://www.thinglink.com/scene/1406090479749038081" target="_blank">https://www.thinglink.com/scene/1406090479749038081</a>), where you can click on Caryophyllales and then see a visual of the cabinet, and click again to bring up a specific herbarium sheet with information on that specific specimen. I love this example because it gives a feel for the actual collections space and can teach visitors about specific specimens without just linking to a database portal that is not as accessible to the public.</div><div><br></div><div>Would anyone happen to have other examples of this kind of collections visualization, or platforms that might be ideal for creating such a product? I'll be doing my project on one cabinet in our collection as a snapshot for the public to see how specimens are stored and accessed. Of course this kind of virtual resource would not be feasible for an entire collection, but I think it's very intriguing and useful for visualizing a specific portion of a collection. </div><div>Thank you!</div><div><br></div><div>Genevieve Anderegg</div>-- <br><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;color:inherit"><font face="arial, sans-serif">University of Colorado Boulder</font></span></div><div style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;color:inherit"><font face="arial, sans-serif">Museum and Field Studies MS</font></span></div><div style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;vertical-align:baseline"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;vertical-align:baseline"><font color="#000000" face="arial, sans-serif">CUMNH Vertebrate Collections, McCain Lab</font></span></div><div style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;color:inherit"><font face="arial, sans-serif">she/her/hers</font></span></div><div style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><font face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;color:inherit">612-876-8138</span><br></font></div><div><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;font-size:inherit;line-height:inherit;font-family:Cambria,Georgia,serif;vertical-align:baseline;color:inherit"><br></span></div></div></div></div>
