- initially developed to access local teaching slides (Drs.
Manhart/Wilson - Biology
301), this system grew to hold locally-produced images and
to index
thousands more housed in other collections.
Locally-produced
images are now hosted in the Digital Archives associated
with the
Sterling C. Evans Library at Texas A&M
Flowering
Plant
Gateway - Prototype system, under
development by
TAMU Curator Hugh
Wilson for use in Biology 301, that allowed reference to different
systems
of classifications and access, with selection of a given family,
to
web-based
information relating to that family. (sequential
update
of
link database)
Texas
Endemics - a pilot system that allowed development of
a
web-based diversity mapping system - base data were not reliable

Dr.
Wilson and TAMU
undergraduates as a Botany (when TAMU had a Botany program)
research
enterprise, that explored the dynamics
of programmed plant image manipulation and conversion of base
botanical
information
from of hardcopy to digital. (1997). We hope to resurrect this very useful
project or to roll the accumulated images into the Vascular Plant
