About ENTOMONE

ENTOMONE is a private working environment for entomologists. It connects field and collection records, photographs, sites, maps, taxonomy and controlled publication of selected data to external services.

ENTOMONE Field Notebook is a private work tool for every entomologist! An app for storing and organizing entomological data, collections, field trip records, and photographs. It includes many essential tools: UTM Map, Alerts, label printing, map generation, record printing, and publishing to iNaturalist. Full privacy and security for your data and photos.

Taxonomic sources

ENTOMONE uses two different taxonomy systems. iNaturalist is used to publish observations and needs its own identification number (taxon_id). Catalogue of Life Extended Release, also used by GBIF, is the reference for species names and the relationship tree. The data source is Catalogue of Life – ChecklistBank. ENTOMONE can also use custom name and classification dictionaries prepared by Users.

If a taxon exists in iNaturalist, the record can be published even when the iNaturalist classification is older. If the taxon is missing from iNaturalist, ENTOMONE automatically checks the name in CoL XR and uses it for local classification when it finds one unambiguous accepted match. Publication to iNaturalist remains blocked until the taxon exists in iNat. Control example: Agapanthia suturalis in CoL XR / GBIF COL XR runs through Agapanthiinae, while iNaturalist still shows the older path through Lamiinae.

Standards and data quality

ENTOMONE follows the GBIF-style direction for data: explicit sources, metadata, location quality, record completeness and export paths toward biodiversity formats such as Darwin Core.

User data and privacy

User records, photos, locations and working identifications are private in ENTOMONE. Publication to iNaturalist or future exports to other services are separate, explicit user actions.

Storage and Google Drive

ENTOMONE stores metadata, relationships and workflow state. Photos may remain in the user's private Google Drive cloud, while the application stores identifiers, thumbnails and controlled working copies needed for operation.
