Provide images when only a region of interest is to be digitised (see the "Additional" section of this form to attach a file). An exhaustive description of the study material is essential for estimating the digitisation time and the cost of the service. For further details, please refer to the "Document explaining how the technical platform operates", which explains how the technical platform operates.

Total number of specimens

Specimens from MNHN collections

For specimens from MNHN, the inventory number is mandatory in order to ensure that data are saved.

Collection code Catalog number inside the chosen collection

Examples: for the specimen MNHN-HA-4253-2, choose the collection code HA from the drop-down menu, then write the inventory number in the dedicated box, 4253-2 and click on "check and add". This check must be carried out for each specimen.

You cannot submit your project if the inventory number is incorrect or does not exist (please contact the responsible or manager of collection if the number is not valid).

Agreement and sending

I have read the information contained in the technical « Document explaining how the technical platform operates» for the AST-RX platform of the MNHN. I undertake to respect all the operating rules of the plateau and those of the collections of the MNHN. Publications resulting from work done within the AST-RX platform must mention the UAR 2700 in the acknowledgments under the terms: « AST-RX platform, UAR 2700 2AD CNRS-MNHN, Paris ». An exhaustive list of the publications relying on data acquired on the platform must be send by the project leader to the AST-RX team in a pdf format.
