Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery

The Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery (http://www.tmag.tas.gov.au/) is making a range of species information and data from its natural history collections available through the Atlas of Living Australia.

Contribution to the ALA

During 2007-2008 the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery will be developing a range of content for the Atlas, including:

  • All whale records (750 records which may not correlate to individual animals, matching field observations and ancillary data to specimens)
  • All record information from cards and registers for echinoderm collections
  • Standardising database fields and biodiversity content management to support international standards
