  1. Distance Diagnostics technology for Aquaculture UGA Center for Internet Imaging & Database Systems (CIIDS) Jasper/Honduras DDDI Consortium

  2. Overview • Complements mailing of physical samples for evaluation, using Web form and digital images. • Versatile and expandable to other disciplines, states and countries. • Initially developed by Plant Pathology Department and Office of Information Technology with extramural funding; now produced by the Center for Internet Imaging & Database Systems (CIIDS) • Our focus: to produce a system that is easy to use, supportable, facilitates diagnostics, and is easily replicated.

  3. Distance Diagnostics Imaging Station - digital cameras, computer, dissecting microscope, compound microscope, microscope/camera adapter, printer and plant disease compendia

  4. Imaging Station Distribution in Georgia Counties in greencurrently have full Imaging Stations. All counties have hand-held digital cameras and Internet access.

  5. Roles of Participants & Technology • Faculty with appropriate responsibilities produce images of specimens and submit DDDI samples. • Diagnostic faculty in participating departments access DDDI samples and submit appropriate evaluations, recommendations and comments. • The Web-based system uses forms designed by each discipline to collect environmental and specific sample information, and up to five images.

  6. How Distance Diagnostics Works

  7. Agent takes images..with hand-held camera:

  8. with dissecting microscope:

  9. with compound microscope:

  10. ..then connects to Web and logs on..

  11. ..selects an entry form and enters data..

  12. ..enters and previews image(s)..

  13. ..and submits the information

  14. The system notifies the appropriate diagnostic faculty via e-mail.. diagnostician@uga.edu

  15. The notified diagnostician views waiting-sample list..

  16. ..looks at sample information. Whole berry Bad spot More spots Spores, hi power Spores, lower power

  17. ..views full-size images..

  18. ..and fills in the diagnostic fields..

  19. Evaluation is made available

  20. Jasper/Honduras Project Overview • Initiated by Dr. Jean Walter, Jasper County Extension Director • Purpose: To provide international educational opportunities for rural youth, and to strengthen economic development in Honduras through education. • Participants include educational institutions, philanthropists and Non-Governmental Organizations.
