Evolution

We need your help as we embark on the next big step in our evolution — creating a database that will ensure our sustainability.

Moving all of that data to a custom database on an institutional platform will improve:

$15,000

  • Security: The database will live behind a firewall controlled by access permissions, two-factor identification and workflows, protecting the data from viruses, software obsolescence and human error.
  • Accuracy: Edits are made through a custom user interface and require review by a Flora author for approval.
  • Currency: Data is edited, imported and added in real-time, then updated to the App on a regular schedule.

The Virginia Environmental Endowment (VEE) awarded the Flora of Virginia a grant to get this necessary transformation of data started.

WE REACHED OUR GOAL ON JUNE 18
AND OUR FINAL TALLY = $18,099.70!
