Pl@ntNet is a participatory botanical observation platform allowing to identify plants from photos (using deep learning) and to share the observations with the community. The platform has three main front-ends: Pl@ntNet androïd (http://bit.ly/1K4D1eU), Pl@ntNet iOS (http://apple.co/2cMtWgu) and Pl@ntNet web (https://identify.plantnet.org/). Pl@ntNet was founded in 2010 by a consortium of four French research organisms (CIRAD, Inria, INRAE and IRD) and is now open to other members. More information about Pl@ntNet can be found at https://plantnet.org/.The occurrences in this collection are Pl@ntNet observations that have been identified only by the deep learning algorithm but which the algorithm confidence was sufficiently high to consider them as valid.
Sampling Description
Study Extent
Entire world, Plantae.Sampling
No sampling protocol, opportunistic observations by Pl@ntNet users.Quality Control
The validation is based on two main criteria: - the output of the automated identification algorithm is greater than a threshold (more precisely the top-1 probability output by the convolutional neural network is greater than 0.9) - the species name matches the checklist considered as the most trusted one for the country where the observation was doneMethod steps
- This collection contains occurrences of plants automatically identified from the observations submitted by Pl@ntNet users to identify them (using one of the three applications: androïd, iOS, web, more information here: https://plantnet.org/). The following filters were applied: - is geolocated - is valid (top-1 softmax output > 0.9) - from a user with an enabled account or from an anonymous user - with a known species name (valid or synonym) in PN - species name != Cannabis - date_query > 0 - remove shared queries (already present in observation dataset) - remove duplicate session (keep the most recent query based on the session number) - must be in one of the WGSRPD polygon level 3 and the binomial species name (without author) must match a species of the corresponding Kew checklist
