Zooniverse workflows

After images are classified on the Zooniverse platform, we download a "Classification file" and parse it to obtain the species ID information that we need.

The classification file includes the entire history of all of the classifications we have ever done in the project. In zooniverse lingo, there are different "workflows" we build that accomplish different tasks. For example, the "Is there an animal" workflow just asks users to indicate if the images in an event have a human or other animal or not. The "Species Identification" workflow asks users to identify all of the species in the event images.

Each workflow is assigned a unique ID number on the Zooniverse, and each time we tweak a workflow, it gets a new version number. When we download a classification file, it contains all of the classifications for all of the workflows, and we use R to subset the data to focus just on the data we are interested in.
