Hymenoptera Cataloging Workflow

Introduction

This section contains the workflow used to catalog the names, taxonomic acts, and literature of the Hymenoptera. The workflow is broken into steps that should be followed sequentially.

Catalog Acquisition / Processing

Overview

Many groups already have printed catalogs that should be used as a backbone for a group. We begin by finding a printed copy of the catalog and scan it at 600 dpi. The high level of resolution required for the scanning ensures a quality OCR of the text.
