Design goals, technical implementation and practical use of another data entry system (Andes) / by Daniel Richard, David Fishman, Lindsay Beazley, Brian Boivin, Jamie Emberley, Ryan Martin, Nicolas Rolland,...: Fs97-6/3621E-PDF

"An event logger and data entry system was developed by DFO Gulf Region to facilitate the capture of information collected during scientific field work. The application, called "Another data entry system" (Andes) was implemented as a browser-based environment that facilitates its deployment in a variety of data capture scenarios. Here, we describe the design goals and implementation details of Andes, and present a number of usage cases. Although the system is tailored primarily for use on fishery-related ecosystem surveys, the flexibility of the application in terms of adapting to new gear types and deployment options promotes its use in a wide variety of applications. To promote transparency, longevity, endorsement and use of Andes by other scientific groups, the application utilizes Open Source software and a shared code development platform"--Abstract, page v.
