Orchid Database

This is the species page (to become genus-specific). The page displays orchid entities from the database filtered using taxonomy terms from Tribe Subtribe and Genus. In the species 'cards' above nothing is hard coded - everything is being generated from the database - all text, taxonomy terms and images. The functionality works and can be applied to all use cases for the orchid database. Anyone, with little training, can create catalogues of species.

Taxonomy Driven

Taxonomy terms are imported as text lists into the database and are then available to tag and organise content without having to type. The collapsible branching tree permits the selection of terms without an overwhemingly long list and the relationship between terms is clear.

As new DNA evidence informs the restructuring of the phylogeny of the Orchidaceae, it is a simple task via the hierarchical drag and drop taxonomy to reorganise this representation of the Orchidaceae.
