Descripción de la metodología paso a paso:
- Photos were taken of the Digitization of the Marine Reference Collection 1. Print and cut ID cards on waterproof paper. 2. Dry specimens in trays and using paper towels. 3. Prepare the work area to pin specimens down. 4. Place rulers both vertically and horizontally. 5. Pin the specimen down in the desired orientation. 6. Count/record the specimens present in each jar. 7. Photograph the whole specimen with identification. 8. Photograph the whole specimen with an Identification and description card. 9. Photograph close-up images for smaller specimens/distinguishable features/unique features etc. 10. Place the specimen back with ID and description card. *Use digital editing software such as Adobe Light Room, Sketchbook, or equivalent to edit/enhance/clean images. 11. Naming convention must follow: “IMA-MRC-ACT-“ORDER”-“FAMILY”-“1, 2, 3…”
