Test projectIn total 168,500 herbarium specimens were imaged
Transcribing started in 2013
Training period was provided for personnel before access to production data
Workflow defined a responsible party for every state of specimen
The route in workflow depended on the difficulty of specimen and experience of transcriber
In acceptance procedure 80 of 1,000 (batch) specimens were verified manually and ≥ 4 flawed specimens caused rejection of whole batch
ResultsPerformance and accuracy improved significantly after two months work
Location was the main cause for rejection in quality check
