As people on average only spent 20 seconds(s) observing an artwork, they mostly miss a lot of informative details that are contained within it. As an example, the 75 different plants that can be found in the Ghent Altarpiece is something not a lot of people are aware of. Within this article, we present a methodology, based on cross-collection linking, to create awareness about the botanical imagery in Van Eyck’s masterpiece and to inform people about their region’s plant richness and diversity over time. As such, this article is a nice example of how the interdisciplinary fields of cultural heritage and botany can go hand in hand to facilitate its dissemination to the general public. The plants in the painting can be queried by their name or by a picture taken with a mobile device—a plant recognition app is used to evaluate the pictures taken from the plants. A study has also been performed to evaluate these apps and to select the most appropriate one for the collection of plants in the Ghent Alterpiece. Currently, we link the detected plants to herbaria, observation data, Global Biodiversity Information Facility plantinfo, and recent wikimedia commons pictures, but other links can also be easily integrated with the platform. Finally, we also studied nowadays plant observations (volunteered geographic information) in more detail and reveal which region currently has most of Van Eyck’s plants/flowers.

根特祭坛画中植物图像的交叉收藏链接,以了解有关范艾克杰作的更多信息,并随着时间的推移探索一个地区的植物丰富度和多样性

由于人们平均只花 20 秒来观察一件艺术品,他们大多会错过其中包含的许多信息性细节。例如,根特祭坛画中可以找到的 75 种不同植物并不是很多人都知道的。在本文中,我们提出了一种基于跨馆藏链接的方法,以提高人们对范艾克杰作中植物图像的认识,并让人们了解他们所在地区的植物丰富性和多样性。因此,这篇文章是一个很好的例子,说明文化遗产和植物学的跨学科领域如何齐头并进,以促进其向公众传播。画中的植物可以通过名字查询,也可以通过移动设备拍摄的图片进行查询——植物识别应用程序用于评估从植物中拍摄的照片。还进行了一项研究来评估这些应用程序,并选择最合适的应用程序来收集 Ghent Alterpiece 中的植物。目前,我们将检测到的植物链接到植物标本馆、观察数据、全球生物多样性信息设施植物信息和最近的维基媒体公共图片,但其他链接也可以很容易地与平台集成。最后,我们还更详细地研究了当今的植物观察(自愿地理信息),并揭示了目前范艾克植物/花卉最多的地区。还进行了一项研究来评估这些应用程序,并选择最合适的应用程序来收集 Ghent Alterpiece 中的植物。目前,我们将检测到的植物链接到植物标本馆、观察数据、全球生物多样性信息设施植物信息和最近的维基媒体公共图片,但其他链接也可以很容易地与平台集成。最后,我们还更详细地研究了当今的植物观察(自愿地理信息),并揭示了目前范艾克植物/花卉最多的地区。还进行了一项研究来评估这些应用程序,并选择最合适的应用程序来收集 Ghent Alterpiece 中的植物。目前,我们将检测到的植物链接到植物标本馆、观察数据、全球生物多样性信息设施植物信息和最近的维基媒体公共图片,但其他链接也可以很容易地与平台集成。最后,我们还更详细地研究了当今的植物观察(自愿地理信息),并揭示了目前范艾克植物/花卉最多的地区。
