So below you will find a flow chart created to attempt to visualize the data creation process for the Perseus Catalog, but unfortunately as I couldn't figure out how to embed the flowchart (graphml defeated me) as anything other than an image, none of the links to open up examples within the wiki from the flowchart are working.

Nonetheless, having created a flowchart, I feel the need to share it:

Update: Thanks to help from the lovely chief software developer of Perseus and Perseids, the flowchart now has a new home as an HTML document with working links, that can be found here

Analytical Cataloging So what exactly is this FRBR you speak of?
