Use Case Scenarios¶
Initial import of data from a existing database¶
Workflow Steps
- Partial import of existing Database (e.g. Euro+Med)
( Import of names: the source of the name itself and of the protolog may be different, the current version of the berlin model however does not support the assignment of source references for name facts! )
- Complementation of synonyms etc. based on literature and online sources like e.g. IPNI
- Each entry taken from an online data source is revised and crosschecked against literature
- Start of revision
Import of External Treatment¶
An expert may have a separate treatment on a taxonomic group which is to be imported into the database.
This treatment is stored in a special file format (Word, Excel ...) or exists as database (Access or other) .
Start a new revision of a genus based on the existing WP6 Cichorieae database¶
Import of Fact Contributions¶
A. Import of occurrences data
=> requires creation of new taxon concepts if the identification of the taxa is based on literature which is not jet covered by existing concepts
B. Image / Media Collections
C. Common names
D. Pollen data
E. Cytological data
F. ... other facts
Proposal Submission¶
Registered taxonomists are granted to submit proposals for a revision of a subset of the taxa.
- The registered taxonomists request a copy of the data subset to be revised.
- Revision of the taxa.
Submission of the final revision as proposals to WP6 Cichorieae.
Peer review of the submission
Currently no decision has been made if the peer review process will be public or closed.
A public peer review process would be made visible to the public by a website where
all comments on the revision are published.
Besides the registered users the publicity also has the opportunity to state comments on
the submitted revision.
It is considered to use a web base discussion platform like a forum, Wiki, Blog etc.
Currently discussions are taking place in emails.
