biodiversitydigit

Biological collections are key to study biodiversity. Most of the data available on these collections is not digital and therefore must digitized prior it is possible to use it. The project aims at creating an application where volunteers can help the digitization process. In this way people will be ... [More] able to help to digitize collection for better knowledge of biodiversity and therefore for helping to save it. The application is highly influenced by other human computation projects and specially with Games with a purpose. [Less]

sketching-games

This project houses source code for Sketching Games. The external purpose of these games is to provide an entertaining platform for collecting data on how people make and describe sketches. This data can then be used for researchers of sketch based interfaces, for example as input to machine learning algorithms for generating sketch recognizers.
