About

Arsis is the workshop of Julien Barbe, a developer based in Montpellier, France.

Since 2009: plant identification with Pl@ntNet, herbarium publishing, education platforms and biodiversity data. Today, independent apps and research on tabular models for ecological data.

Corrections are added, never erased.

The years, ring by ring

2006 to 2026, as a slice through a tree.

The years since 2006, drawn as tree rings: one ring per year, 2006 at the heart, 2026 at the bark. Five rings are marked: 2006: CESI, Computer science training. 2009: INRA, AMAP lab, Lead developer, Pl@ntNet. 2013: App Store, First Pl@ntNet iOS app: identify a plant from a photo. 2015: Independent, Education platforms, biodiversity data, business applications. 2026: Arsis, Tabular models, generated interfaces, independent apps. 2006 2009 2013 2015 2026
