Georeferencing
The GIF image shown below is the result of a search for georeferenced records of the teleost fish Cyclothone pallida. Four collections were queried and 509 records returned. Blue dots represent locality occurrences. Through FishNet 2, users can download all of these records in a variety of formats and visualize the data in programs such as ESRI ArcView or ESRI ArcMap.

The FishNet 2 will also include the integration of Geolocate (developed by Tulane University), a tool that enables automatic georeferencing of partners connected to FishNet 2. Geolocate uses common locality names among partners and implements georeferenced data to the partners. Further information on Geolocate and development of this tool can be found atthe Museum of Natural History - Tulane University page.
