TDWG-GUID demo

Just in time for the second meeting of TDWG GUID, I've got a version of the ant triple store up and running here. There are some technical details posted on the TDWG GUID wiki.
Note that the first time you go to the site you get a warning from Google Maps that the API key is invalid. It is, there's an issue to do with the server having multiple IPs (a temporary situation while I restore another machine that got hacked). Just click on OK and it should work fine. Figured it out. In my haste I'd left some redundant code in the file index.php, and it contained the wrong Google API key. Simple really...duh!

    what is the base for this fantastic, cool ant phylogeny? Might need some tweaking, and it might be interesting to use this tool to show the changes in ant phylogeny in each paper that comes out right now.

    Was there a reason, why the descriptions have been omitted - or what do we need to do so you will include it again?

  • If you mean the hyperbolic tree, it's an old NCBI classification taken from my ancient Glasgow Taxonomic Name Server project. It's really just sitting there as a placeholder until I do something with phylogenies and classifications.

    One idea I've been toying with is using classification to navigate the database, and/or display where the current set of results fit on the tree. So much to do, so little time...
