NOVEMBER 21, 2016

First Workshop for IT Staff on Barcodes and GRIN-Global

Edwin Rojas (CIP)Genebank Data System Manager

CIP Genebank IT Overview

Agenda

• Genebank Environment• Barcode KIT Components• Use Cases with Barcode KIT• CIP Barcode KIT: Evolution & Status• More Mobile Devices

Developers wants to be a code Ninja?

Do you see anyone sitting down in Genebank?

Key Solution: Use Barcode KIT to Improve data collection & capture data where activities occur

Cold Chambers/Laboratories

Greenhouses Field

Genebank Environment: Where do they work ?

Genebank Environment: How does it happen ?

How many patterns do you see ?

Key Solution: Use the power of automatation throught mobile computing To increase Genebank visibility and facilitate Germplasm Tracking/Monitoring

• Recurring operations• Labor intensive: read/write in various stages• Many labs & units coordinating• Activities dependency

Agenda

• Genebank Environment• Barcode KIT Components• CIP Barcode KIT: Evolution & Status• Use Cases with Barcode KIT• More Mobile Devices

The barcode KIT refers to the components of a identification system needed to implement a barcode system for automatic identification and data collection based in a mobile solution. Rojas, E. (2006)

RFID Labels can be printer with a barcode

RFID ComponentsRFID is an identification system that use radio frequency, RFID labels receive and transmit radio signals.

RFID labels can send instant alerts if a germplasm is moved out of a location.RFID improve tracking greatly reducing the time spent searching the germplasm because they say I am in that location or NOT.

Agenda
