The Australian National Botanical Gardens
is Australia's head body for managing all plant data. The ANBG are utilising
Piction as their plant species image management platform. Piction's
ability to handle large volumes of data and flexible metadata engine
were key to being selected.
The ANBG's next phase is to automate all external requests for plant
imagery via Piction's request manager. Cost recovery for digitisation
is also planned through sales and licensing of various plant imagery.
