A Field Information Management System (FIMS) enables data collection at the source (in the field) by generating spreadsheet templates, validating data, and assigning persistent identifiers for every unique biological sample. The following diagram shows how the system works. The most typical functions are Generating Templates and Validating Data, both of which can be found under the Tools menu.<br/>[http://biscicol.org/biocode-fims/templates.jsp Generate a Template]<br/>[http://biscicol.org/biocode-fims/validation.jsp Validate data]<br/>[https://code.google.com/p/biocode-fims/ How FIMS works]<br/> | ||

A highly efficient and field tested workflow for recording and databasing insects and host plants developed by Randall Schuh (and others) during the Plant Bug Planetary Biodiversity Project. Record collecting events information in great detail, including images and host plant material. The AEC database is open-source, easily installed, and submits data to iDigBio and Discover Life. | :#[https://www.idigbio.org/sites/default/files/workshop-presentations/field-to-database/AEC-FieldHost.mp4 Field Host Collecting Workflow with Arthropod Easy Capture] (mp4).
