Finished! Looks like this project is out of data at the moment!

Great work, everyone! We finished classifying all the images we had but we'll have more in the fall. Stay tuned!

Research

The Field Museum’s Live Plant Photo database contains over 30,000 field photos taken in the tropical forests of Central and South America—many as part of our Rapid Inventories program. With more than 10,000 species, the website is a popular tool for conservationists and researchers who need to identify plants quickly. But we want to make it even better. We want visitors to be able to search by flower and fruit color, by different plant parts, and more. That's where we need your help! By helping tag our photos, you'll be improving the search capability of the new website (launched in May 2018!) and ultimately helping advance tropical forest science and conservation!

Thanks for supporting our work!
