KDSmart 2.0.75 [free]

For more KDSmart information, visit http://www.kddart.org/kdsmart.html or the User Guide at http://www.kddart.org/help/kdsmart/KDSmart lets you perform phenotypic data scoring in the field.Concepts
• Trial: also known as Experiment, Nursery or Study, multiple Trials may be loaded into KDSmart
• Plot: a Trial contains multiple Plots in rows and columns
• Specimen: (or Individual) if desired, you may decide to score multiple specimens within each Plot
• Trait: information (usually a phenotype) to score for each Plot or Specimen.
• Trait Instance: you may score multiple instances of each Trait
A Trait may have a predefined range of values to allow single-touch scoring using a "pick-from-list" approach. You can associate many Traits for the
Plots/Specimens in a Trial but select a subset of these to be scored during a specific field scoring visit. You may also change the order in which they are
appear or are presented for scoring in Auto-Advance mode.
Other attributes of Plots and Specimens are:
• Note: a text string
• Quick Tags: for quick annotation of a Plot/Specimen
• Attachments: Photos (in the future Video or Audio recordings)Quick Tags may be created while in the field or pre-defined and loaded into KDSmart by using the companion desktop application KDXplore. You may apply
zero, one or more Quick Tags to each Plot/Specimen.
An searchable overview (Field View) of all the Plots is available and you may overlay it with a HeatMap using one or more of the values of any of the Plot
Types, Plot Attributes, Quick Tags or any of the Traits. This may be used to navigate to Plots of interest.
We use the term Specimen or Individual as KDSmart may be used for any type of flora/fauna relevant to your trial or experiment. Similarly, a Plot may
be any partitioning of the Trial (although in this version we only support two-dimensional partitioning) and not all rows and columns need to be present (the field may be
sparsely populated).
When required, data recorded by KDSmart may be exported for transfer to other computer systems where it may be analysed or stored in a database. While this can be
done by uploading or file transfer, it is more readily and seamlessly done using the KDXplore desktop application.Languages
Localisation for German and Mexican-Spanish is available and may be selected separately to the language setting on the device.Other ProductsKDSmart is part of a suite of Diversity Arrays software supporting phenotypic, genetic and environmental data collection, storage and analysis. These
products are aimed at breeding and pre-breeding applications but may also be used in multidisciplinary agro-ecological and environmental research undertakings.
