Thanks to everyone who joined us at the monthly SOS collector call on Tuesday! Since some crews are starting to wrap up for the season, we spent a good chunk of time going over the data QC process in Geoplatform, and also reviewed a new herbarium label export
tool. We recorded that section of the meeting and it is now available in your GeoPlatform help documents, as are several new written guides: a Geoplatform User Guide, SOS Data QC Guide, and directions for herbarium label exports. See the condensed notes about
the September call, and let me know if you have any questions. Our next collector call will be Oct 1, 10am MST. See you there!</div>
