Search and explore collectors and determiners of biological specimens in Canada. This proof-of-concept was produced by David P. Shorthouse. Using biodiversity occurrence data from Canadensys. And academic information from ORCID. Collector and determiner names were parsed and cleaned using the Namae gem. Among other custom regular expressions. Collector networks were produced with the Ruby Graph Language gem. Scientific authority information in scientific names were extracted using the Biodiversity gem.
