Search Therevid WebMandala

The Therevid Project WebMandala search interface uses a standalone version of Mandala optimized for rapid PHP searching by periodically exporting updated data from the production database.

All georeferenced specimens with valid names are mapped in collaboration with John Pickering and DiscoverLife.org, utilizing a tab-delimited export of specimen data and valid taxon names for the family Therevidae and dynamically producing maps of specimens by taxon. Customized maps of multiple taxa, including those from databases other than Therevid Mandala can be constructed for web viewing or publication. These maps are integrated into the PHP search interface for each project.

The PHP search format uses FX.php, FMWebSchool's FMStudio to create PHP search pages with Adobe's Dreamweaver. The PHP interface requires no real help before diving in, but hovering over some pieces of text can reveal tips for searching!
