::The GEOLocate project is an effort to develop software and services for translating textual locality descriptions associated with biodiversity collections data into geographic coordinates. In addition to the automated processing of locality descriptions, GEOLocate provides an interface by which users can georeference records [http://www.museum.tulane.edu/geolocate/web/WebGeoref.aspx one by one] or [http://www.museum.tulane.edu/geolocate/web/WebFileGeoref.aspx in batches] from files, visualize and correct calculated coordinates, and determine polygonal error descriptions. <br> | ::The GEOLocate project is an effort to develop software and services for translating textual locality descriptions associated with biodiversity collections data into geographic coordinates.

::The BioGeomancer Project is a worldwide collaboration of natural history and geospatial data experts. The primary goal of the project is to maximize the quality and quantity of biodiversity data that can be mapped in support of scientific research, planning, conservation, and management. The project promotes discussion, manages geospatial data and data standards, and develops software tools in support of this mission. | ::The BioGeomancer Project is a worldwide collaboration of natural history and geospatial data experts.
