Pl@ntNet is an application for collecting, annotating and searching images to facilitate plant identification.
It was developed by a consortium that brings together scientists from CIRAD, INRA, INRIA, IRD and the Tela Botanica network as part of a project funded by the Agropolis Foundation.
It includes a support system for the automatic identification of plants from photos compared with images from a botanical database. The results are used to find the botanical name of a plant, if it is sufficiently illustrated in the database.
The number of species included and the number of images used evolve with the contributions to the project.
