Searchable Museum Floor
The museum floor has many items in drawers, on labels, and hanging in shadowboxes.
There is now an index of all the items on the museum floor so that it could be easier to search for any reference material that might be mentioned but not indexed in our database. This just a demo version that we are providing to get feedback from museum staff. To get the data presented here, we scraped the links for drawers, labels, and shadowboxes, ran OCR on them, cross-referenced them with our floor map, and scraped Wikipedia for common names. The result is an easy, searchable interface for everything on the museum floor.
