Description
Summary:Effective inventory management can be extremely difficult owing to various types of plants in Putrajaya Botanical Garden. These databases are required to provide high-level effective and accuracy. Usually, staff will make file in Microsoft Excel for new species. Consequently there are often difficulties in accessing information and data re-entry problems. By using 2D barcode, this study presents a novel system called Development of Plant Material Databases and Traceability Model System for Putrajaya Botanical Garden. These development based on databases system and 2D barcode system to troubleshooting in difficulties in finding information regarding plant morphology, difficulties of keeping track of new plant record and existing manual system. Development of Plant Material Databases and Traceability Model System is a new approach in the field of botanical garden design and landscape where it is necessary to handle large data to complete an inventory management. This combines information technology and landscape knowledge. The idea began with looking at the palm plantation, which is the main model of this thesis study. The study on the plant morphology is carried out at two site sites namely palm hill and lakeside in front of the lakeside. It can be said there is no database of the palm plant species based on the plant morphology in Putrajaya Botanical Garden. Research planning uses the Species study, Databases system and Barcoding system, and also System Development Life Cycle (SDLC). The implementation of the system is by the aid of many software which including PHP and JAVA (programming language), Visual Basic and JavaScript (Script Language), Mysql and SQL (database) and Joomla (web development) as to make sure the smooth running of the project. By using Development of Plant Material Databases and Traceability Model System, the inventory data well managed thus ease for managing and monitoring.
