Base Data Files

Working data files:  Data files used for various FTC operations will be placed here as time permits.


Herbarium Specimen Data files:

         Astcdata.zip  Britdata.zip   Shstdata.zip  Taesdata.zip  Tamudata.zip  Texlldata.zip

Data files listed above are compressed (zip), delimited text files generated by either the Tracy herbarium data input system or formatted from output generated by other input systems (TEX, SHSU) and expressed by the FTC/TAMU-BWG Specimen Browser.  These files are replaced periodically by updated sets as specimen data input proceeds.  Output date is indicated by the un-zipped file name.  Updated files will show changes with regard to both quantity (new specimens) and quality (corrections/updates for available data) as we develop the specimen databases and curate local herbaria.
