Exploring carnivorous plant habitats based on images from social media

International audience; We visualize species habitat distribution information based on geo-located images posted on social media. For the example of carnivorous plants, we use published image data to produce interactive maps of the spatial distribution of different species/genuses, histograms of the elevations at which they grow, and plots of the temporal distribution of the photographs. We further discuss the mismatch between our distribution maps and traditionally established maps as well as further possibilities for research with our data.
