I have a really basic script going. It uses a matplotlib basemap for the maps display. I had a dynamic webmap using Mapbox and leaflet. Maybe could just create a search box that links into the iDigBio api. My visualization could use a number of improvements. It might be fun to use graph theory to show connectivity, but that's just an idea right now. Would also love to do an Immersion project [https://immersion.media.mit.edu/] based off collecting teams using the iDigBio api.
We could use graph algorithms from NetworkX to create a visualization tool for Collection mangers to find dup. records across all institutes. Thinking that could be a helpful GUI. User enters the collector number and/or collector name and returns a pretty display with link(s) to home record object(s) and image(s).
If you think of modeling as niche modeling, it is possible, but can be tricky to do it over time (requires lots and lots of data at different points in time... it will be very taxon-dependent).
Develop map visualizations for modeling species distribution changes over time with iDigBio data.
