pictures of the plant in question, and note its location, all tasks
that are described in the remainder of this section.

The small Android app ghini.pocket was added to the Ghini family
while a Ghini programmer was here in Quito. It helps us take a
snapshot of the database in our pocket while walking in the garden,
but it also allows for a very swift inventory procedure.

.. admonition:: Inventory procedure
:class: toggle

We start ghini.pocket, we write down the name of the location where
we will be conducting the inventory, for example (INV 1) for
greenhouse 1. We enter (type or scan if the plant has bar code or
QR code) the accession code and we look it up in ghini.pocket.

A side effect of performing the search is that ghini.pocket writes
the date with time, location and the code looked for in a text file
that can later be imported into the database.

For a greenhouse with around 1000 plants our estimates suggest you
will need two days, working at relaxed pace, from 8:00 am to 5:00
pm.

After having imported the file generated by ghini.pocket, it is easy
to reveal which plants are missing. For example: If we did the
inventory of the INV3 from 4 to 5 September, this is the
corresponding search::

plant where location.code = 'INV3' and not notes.note like '2017090%'

All of these plants can be marked as dead, or lost, according to
garden policy.

.. admonition:: Visualizing the need of taxonomic attention
:class: toggle

Our protocol includes one more detail intended to visually
highlight plants that need the attention of a taxonomist.

.. image:: images/taxonomic_alert.png

A plant that only appears in our data base identified at family
level or that wasn't yet the database receives a visual signal
(e.g.: a wooden or plastic stick, for ice cream or french fries), to
highlight that it is not identified. In this way the taxonomist in
charge, when making a tour of the greenhouse can quickly spot them
and possibly proceed to add their identification in the database.
