We will be creating a project for the Smithsonian Museum's "ForrestGEO" project.
ForestGEO, an initiative led by the Smithsonian Institution, studies forest diversity via 70+ research sites. Each research site conducts censuses of every tree within the plot at that location. Once forest data is collected from a census, it can take over a year to prepare that data for analysis. This delay is largely due to a patchwork of highly manual processes and legacy software that ForestGEO relies on to enter data into a digital format and validate the data. Furthermore, a handful of database managers are responsible for maintaining this legacy process because errors requiring expert support frequently arise. As a result, ForestGEO would like to make their data collection system more reliable, automated, and easy to use.
