San Francisco Botanical Garden Society At Strybing Arboretum

Log Number: MA-06-09-0280-09

The San Francisco Botanical Garden will use its IMLS award to support its GIS Mapping Project. Using a combination of global positioning and total station mapping technologies, this project will create maps that are tied to collections records and show the location of every plant in six thematic gardens. The project will increase the Society’s capacity to advance strategic goals in three important areas of museum operations: plant collections management, care and maintenance of the gardens and interpretation of the garden’s plant collections to a broad and diverse audience.
