Welcome to IHerbSpec


The International Herbarium Spectral Digitization Working Group (IHerbSpec) is a global consortium advancing the collection and application of reflectance spectra from herbarium specimens to support integrative plant biology and biodiversity science.
Through the development of shared standards, protocols, and data-management practices, we facilitate the harmonization of spectral datasets while fostering collaborative research that connects institutions, disciplines, and communities worldwide.
