Sampling with GPS-enabled smartphone and DII
Between 2015 and 2017 a team of researchers involved in the projects MOD-CO and GFBio established a praxis-oriented workflow for ecological research groups. They should be enabled for effective sampling environmental vouchers. The proposed procedure is generic, effective and basically independent from data management solutions or specific collection management systems. The DWB team was involved in software design and implementation of a new tool, called DiversityImageInspector.
The results were published:
- Triebel, D., Reichert, W., Bosert, S., Feulner, M., Osieko Okach, D., Slimani, A. & Rambold, G. 2018. A generic workflow for effective sampling of environmental vouchers with UUID assignment and image processing. – Database, 2018 (Article ID bax096), 1–10.

A closer view on workflow details is given below:
- Workflow (step 1 to step 3) demonstrated with images and a sample dataset
Procedure for preparing UUID-QR-codes for labelling sampling containers
with generation of UUID-QR-codes, image processing (see wiki site below, to be done)
- Workflow (step 4 to step 5, with DII involved) demonstrated with a sample dataset
(to be done)
Sample dataset (to be improved) as csv table under https://github.com/SNSB/DWB-Contrib/tree/master/DiversityCollection/Import/Schemas/DiversityImageInspector .
