Real-time advisory service for orchid care

Abstract

Problem in the orchid industry's production is caused by the lack of efficient technical knowledge and timely nursery environmental monitoring. Due to the constraints that the nurserymen have in accessing information, they suffered the hardship in managing the orchid care practices. Therefore, we propose a real-time advisory service by utilizing mobile application for mobility, cloud computing technology for scalability, and push notification service for early notification. The service manages to improve nurserymen decision making in orchid care management, reduce cost and time, and enhance their expertise in orchid production.
