ETH BioDex

Made to assist Taxonomists and workers in natural history collections

Features & Capabilities

Made to assist Taxonomists and workers in natural history collections, BioDex aims to empower people who want to contribute to the process of sorting and archiving museum specimens. After photographing a specimen, the app displays a list of the most similar species along with example images for cross reference.

We are currently focused on identifying species of Butterflies but are working adding more families of Lepidoptera and other Insect groups in the future.

HIGHLIGHTS

- specifically designed use in collections
- fast identification results
- ergonomic layout for repeated use
- active development to add new species and taxonomic groups
