App-ExploraCitricos v2.0 is an application for assessing epidemiological variables with a spatio-temporal, multicrop, multivariety-species, multivariable, multi-pest, multi-user and multi-criteria approach for risk analysis in the citrus productive chain. This work aimed to develop an application for Android® mobile devices higher than 5.0, allowing in situ evaluations associated with epidemiological or phytosanitary processes through a flexible design customized to the user's criteria. The process is initiated by logging into the application with passwords, previously registered, for authentication. Before an assessment, users are required to register only once n-pests and/or n-diseases associated with the citrus crop(s)/species concerned, providing the common and scientific name, and organism type (fungus, virus, bacterium, etc.). Entries are stored locally available for future assessments. Later, set up assessment n-scales with n-classes to quantify damage/severity. Versatility allows entry of qualitative (e.g. healthy, sick, dead) or quantitative scales (e.g. 0, 50%). It also enables to assess presence/absence and quantify vector if required. By customizing the assessment, choose the pest(s) concerned and associated scale. At the moment of evaluation, a plantation is parameterized by 26 epidemiological-productive variables, e.g., agronomic condition, age, crop, variety/cultivar, irrigation type, nutrition, management, etc. Assessment is performed for n-plants defined by the user. Per plant, the selected pathogen-pest(s) and scale class is assessed. Optionally, up to three geo-referenced photographs of symptoms or other aspect of concern can be taken. At the end, assessment(s) are sent to a database web platform. Assessments per planting are exported in MS-Excel for sharing via email, bluetooth, social networks or other device tools. |
