Leafsnap is an application that defines plants of all species

It is Treehugger’s dream. Leafsnap It is a free application that defines plant species of all species, from flowers and barks to fruits and trees. Go on a picnic, take a snapshot of a sheet, and this wonder will determine the plant from which it comes and gives you all kinds of additional information. You can also use Leafsnap to identify home plants that attract your attention or need some TLC (the app provides care instructions).

With more than 32,000 plant optical lights from all over the world in its database, LeafsnAP offers almost unlimited specification for the factory-thus describing its elements as “the most comprehensive, accurate and accurate factory definition applications!”

The application is a result of cooperation between the University of Colombia, the University of Maryland and the Smithsonian Foundation. Computer scientists who created Leafsnap have benefited from the sporting techniques that were developed to recognize the face and apply them to specifying species. Smithsonian plant collections collected the initial data collections of the types of papers and photography. Each image of a paper is charged with the papers photo library so that the best matches are classified and noticed to verify.

It is a complex process, because “within a single species, the leaves can contain completely diverse forms, while the leaves of different types are sometimes similar, so one of the main technical challenges in the use of leaves to identify plant species was to find effective representations of their shape, which captures the most important characteristics.”

Leafsnap has been present since 2009 and has developed significantly since then. Through its current version, you can provide previous definitions and adjust the evaluation reminder of the necessary plant care systems. Some commentators indicate that users should take pictures of the leaves on a white background, which is a little embarrassing if you wander in nature. But, apparently, this enhances the accuracy of identification.

The reviews are positive, as users describe the application as “it has been very well prepared and organized and … exactly what I was looking for.” One of them indicated that he works on dried or dead flowers and “tells you how to help if they die.” Another admired accurately and the fact that it defines fungi. “I was more affected when I took a picture of our Zanna on the day of the descent. I took a picture of the papers and Kelill got acquainted with an orange day and provided care instructions!” It may be called Saver Plant.

Leafsnap contains a nice optical dictionary for the types of leaves, which can be matched with names and descriptions if one has patience to pass through it. There are pictures and information about tree flowers, fruits, seeds and bark, giving the user a deeper understanding of the species. The app may be a good tool for children to explore the identity of the plant. actually, Proper logical media says Leafsnap “can definitely help children become more familiar with the leaves and trees. The catalog and strong educational games with beautiful pictures.”

You can find Leafsnap on the application store (There is a distinct version free of ads that you can buy, but the primary version is free.)
