Digitizing collections to unlock the full potential of palynology: A case study with the Smithsonian palynology collection

Large palynological collections have been built over decades and contain vital information. However, they are often difficult to access and use effectively. What is the point of having such collections if they are not fully utilizable? To solve this problem, we digitized the Smithsonian palynological collection using both light and confocal microscopy.
