Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of plant information management, and in particular to a plant management system based on hierarchical coding. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of landscaping, plant germplasm resource protection, and smart garden management technologies, information-based and intelligent management has become the core development trend for plant maintenance, germplasm traceability, and science popularization. Large botanical gardens are characterized by a wide variety of germplasm resources, a large number of plants, dispersed park areas, collaborative management of multiple areas, high personalized needs for science popularization operations, and heavy tasks of germplasm surveys and phenological observations. Their requirements for unique plant identification, multi-agency access control, differentiated science popularization displays, and refined operation and maintenance throughout the entire life cycle are far higher than those for ordinary urban green spaces and small-scale greening projects. Currently, existing general-purpose plant management systems have extremely poor adaptability. Most adopt single-code identification, fixed display modes, and unified management logic, lacking a hierarchical semantic coding system, multi-agency differentiated rendering capabilities, and multi-scene adaptive identification mechanisms. These technical systems have many inherent defects and are completely unable to adapt to the complex management needs of large-scale botanical gardens, which require large-scale, refined, multi-entity, and personalized management.

[0003] First, the existing plant identification coding system has a simplistic structure, mostly relying on simple individual plant numbers without hierarchical or semantic coding logic. This makes it impossible to achieve multi-layered control capabilities, such as separating management authority permissions, linking species knowledge bases, and binding plant physical coordinates. Traditional coding methods struggle to differentiate management authority, leading to issues like confusion and unauthorized access among plant data from different institutions. Furthermore, they cannot efficiently connect to plant encyclopedia and science popularization resources, and are only compatible with established, mature plants. For nurseries awaiting transplantation or newly added, unknown plants, there is no effective temporary identification solution, severely limiting their applicability.

[0004] Furthermore, existing plant QR code display systems have a fixed functional model, with QR code scan access pages mostly being fixed single interfaces that cannot be dynamically rendered based on user identity. This generally results in visitors being unable to access scientific information and administrators being unable to easily conduct online maintenance operations. It fails to meet the dual needs of public science education and professional maintenance management, leading to high coupling between the system's service and data layers, a chaotic logical architecture, and poor scalability and usability.

[0005] Furthermore, current mainstream plant management solutions lack a collaborative architecture integrating physical signage, mobile devices, and the cloud. Signage only provides basic information display and lacks the ability to perform tasks such as code parsing, institutional access verification, and dynamic assembly of personalized content. The system's data interaction process is simplistic and cannot adapt to the differentiated display and management interfaces required by different management organizations. This hinders accurate archiving of plant information, real-time monitoring, access control, and full lifecycle operation and maintenance management, failing to meet the refined, intelligent, and scenario-based plant management needs of modern smart gardens. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of this, the purpose of this application is to provide a plant management system based on hierarchical coding that is adapted to the specific scenarios of large botanical gardens. Compared with existing general plant management systems, it specifically addresses the specific pain points of large botanical gardens, such as large species quality, multiple zones, multiple entities operating, high requirements for personalized popular science, and high difficulty in refined operation and maintenance. It has multiple core technical advantages, such as hierarchical semantic coding, differentiated rendering of the same species in multiple institutions, dynamic rendering of dual identity modes, end-to-cloud collaborative linkage, and adaptive coding for multiple scenarios. It effectively overcomes the inherent defects of existing technologies, such as single coding, chaotic permissions, fixed display interface, poor scenario adaptability, weak system collaboration, and inability to support the differentiated operation of multiple zones in large botanical gardens.

[0007] The technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: This application provides a hierarchical coding-based plant management system, including a tagging module, an Internet of Things (IoT) component, and a management module. The tagging module has a unique QR code that integrates the management organization code, plant code, and individual plant code, and uses these codes to construct a unique identifier, establishing a mapping relationship between the IoT component, the management module, and the corresponding plant. The IoT component is deployed at the plant site to collect plant growth environment data and plant status data, and to perform data transmission. The management module communicates with the IoT component to receive, store, and analyze the collected data, and completes plant information archiving, status monitoring, and operation and maintenance management based on the analysis results.

[0008] Furthermore, the management organization code, plant code, and individual plant code constitute a three-segment hierarchical semantic coding system. The management organization code corresponds to the organization domain, the plant code corresponds to the species domain, and the individual plant code corresponds to the individual domain. The management organization code is used to isolate the data access permissions of different management entities, the plant code is used to associate with the plant encyclopedia knowledge base, and the individual plant code is used to bind individual plants.

[0009] Furthermore, the three-segment hierarchical semantic coding system retains only the management agency code and the plant code, omitting the individual plant code, and uses a preset placeholder to replace the field of the individual plant code, so as to enable batch unified identification of the same species under the corresponding agency.

[0010] Furthermore, the hierarchical semantic coding system retains only plant codes, while management agency codes and individual plant codes are replaced with preset placeholders. The system matches the plant codes with a general plant encyclopedia knowledge base to achieve popular science display.

[0011] Furthermore, the hierarchical semantic coding system retains the management agency code and the plant code, and uses a unique GUID code to replace the individual plant code field. The GUID code is used to achieve the early tagging and identification of unknown plants.

[0012] Furthermore, the management module has a built-in dual-mode dynamic rendering mechanism, which identifies the identity carried by the user scanning the code to distinguish between the identity of a visitor and the identity of an administrator.

[0013] Furthermore, the management module performs dynamic routing switching for the unified access link corresponding to the same QR code, jumping to the science popularization display mode and the management operation mode respectively. The science popularization display mode outputs HTML5 rich media plant encyclopedia content, while the management operation mode outputs plant maintenance data collection forms.

[0014] Furthermore, after scanning the QR code, the mobile software parses the code to obtain the management organization code, plant code, and individual plant code, and sends an organization domain permission verification request to the management module. The management module retrieves the corresponding organization configuration file and dynamically assembles plant encyclopedia display content and backend management operation interface adapted to the current user's identity based on the verification result.

[0015] Furthermore, the management module is pre-set with a first management entity and a second management entity. The first management entity corresponds to the first management organization code of the management organization code, and the second management entity corresponds to the second management organization code of the management organization code. The first management organization code and the second management organization code are associated with different plant display interfaces.

[0016] Furthermore, the QR code generation steps include: Step S1: Displaying the tag generation management interface of the tag module; Step S2: Responding to the operation command of the first user on the tag generation management interface, generating the management organization interface and plant management interface corresponding to the operation command; Step S3: Obtaining management organization information and plant management information based on the management organization interface and plant management interface. The plant management information includes any one or more of the following combinations: basic plant information, plant introduction information, plant maintenance information, plant location information, plant phenological information, and plant image information; Step S4: Generating plant tags based on the management organization information and plant management information.

[0017] As can be seen from the above technical solution, this invention innovatively designs a three-segment hierarchical semantic coding architecture and a multi-organization differentiated content rendering mechanism to address the complex, diverse, and refined management needs of large botanical gardens. This solves the industry bottleneck of traditional systems being unable to achieve "multi-style popular science education for the same species, multi-solution maintenance for the same species, and independent operation of multiple zones." Through a comprehensive solution of hierarchical semantic coding, dynamic identity rendering, end-to-cloud collaborative interaction, and multi-scenario coding adaptation, it significantly improves the access security, scenario adaptability, richness of popular science education, and refined operation and maintenance of plant management in large botanical gardens. It can perfectly adapt to the core business needs of large botanical gardens, including germplasm resource surveys, zoned popular science operation, multi-team collaborative management, long-term control of ancient and famous trees, and full-cycle phenological observation. It possesses extremely high value in horticultural research, popular science promotion, and smart garden implementation. The beneficial effects are as follows: First, this invention constructs a three-tiered semantic coding system that integrates three types of information: organization, species, and individual, achieving semantic, hierarchical, and functional management of the coding. By using organizational coding, it achieves data access isolation among multiple organizations, effectively avoiding data confusion and unauthorized access by different management entities, and ensuring the independence and security of garden plant data. By binding plant codes to an encyclopedia knowledge base, it enables precise association and retrieval of plant science information; by binding individual plant codes to individual plants, it achieves one code per plant and precise traceability. Furthermore, for scenarios involving unplanted plants in nurseries or unknown plants awaiting transplantation, GUID coding can replace traditional individual numbers, eliminating the need to bind to fixed individual plants, greatly expanding the applicable scenarios of QR code identification, and balancing the needs of refined management of planted plants with standardized batch management of unknown seedlings.

[0018] Secondly, this invention employs a dual-mode dynamic rendering mechanism to provide differentiated services for two user scenarios using the same QR code link. The system can automatically identify the different identity tokens of visitors and administrators, dynamically switching between science popularization display mode and management operation mode. It outputs HTML5 rich media encyclopedia content to the public to meet the needs of garden science popularization, and outputs data collection forms to maintenance personnel to support routine maintenance operations. This effectively solves the shortcomings of traditional QR code pages, which have fixed functions and cannot simultaneously meet the dual needs of science popularization and management. It achieves logical decoupling between the system service layer and data layer, significantly improving the scalability and reusability of the system architecture.

[0019] Third, this invention constructs a collaborative architecture integrating signage, software, and the cloud, enabling seamless linkage across the entire process of code parsing, permission verification, and content assembly. After scanning the physical QR code, the mobile device can quickly parse the layered coding information and initiate institutional domain permission verification to the cloud. The cloud then dynamically adapts and assembles personalized display content and management interfaces based on the corresponding institutional configuration file, achieving customized service output for different institutions and users with different identities. This completely solves the problems of traditional signage having limited functionality, poor cloud-terminal integration, and the inability to adaptively configure content.

[0020] Fourth, this invention enables refined information-based management and control of the entire plant lifecycle. By relying on IoT components to collect real-time data on plant growth environment and plant status, and combining this with the data storage, analysis, and processing capabilities of the management module, it can automatically archive plant information, monitor real-time status, provide early warnings of anomalies, and manage operation and maintenance. Combined with a unique mapping relationship using hierarchical coding, it achieves precise correspondence and traceability of data for each plant, significantly improving the digitalization and intelligence level of smart garden plant maintenance.

[0021] In summary, this invention, through a comprehensive solution of hierarchical semantic encoding, dynamic identity rendering, end-to-cloud collaborative interaction, and multi-scenario encoding adaptation, effectively improves the access security, scenario adaptability, functional richness, and system scalability of garden plant management. It combines popular science service value with professional operation and maintenance value, and is adapted to the application needs of large-scale, multi-subject, and full-scenario smart garden plant management.

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 and 2 This application provides a plant management system based on hierarchical coding. This plant management system can be widely adapted and deployed in greening scenarios such as urban parks, botanical gardens, urban open green spaces, and campuses. It is especially suitable for the intelligent management of famous ancient trees, large trees, and large-scale greening plants in parks. It can carry out multiple digital operation tasks in one stop, such as plant science popularization and display, plant asset filing and registration, plant growth observation and recording, full life cycle management of living plants, phenological data monitoring, and garden ecological survey.

[0036] The plant management system specifically includes a tagging module 10, an IoT component 20, and a management module 30. The tagging module 10 has a unique QR code that integrates the management organization code, plant code, and individual plant code, creating a unique identifier and establishing a mapping relationship between the IoT component 20, the management module 30, and the corresponding plant. The IoT component 20 is deployed at the plant site to collect plant growth environment data and plant status data, and to perform data transmission. The management module 30 communicates with the IoT component 20 to receive, store, and analyze the collected data, and based on the analysis results, completes plant information archiving, status monitoring, and operation and maintenance management.

[0037] It is understandable that this system, based on intelligent QR code tagging, achieves lightweight deployment and application. The overall application boasts four significant advantages: First, users do not need to download and install a dedicated app; they can trigger system interaction simply by scanning the code with their mobile devices, resulting in a low barrier to entry and high accessibility. Second, it supports repeated scanning for surveys and data entry, continuously accumulating plant observation data with a complete time scale, forming a full-cycle data archive of plant growth. Third, it can be deeply embedded into a refined management system for living plants, adapting to the entire process of plant maintenance, surveys, documentation, and traceability. Fourth, it is simple to deploy, quick to implement, and can be rapidly scaled up and applied, suitable for batch upgrades and renovations of various garden scenarios. Correspondingly, this solution only requires the deployment of intelligent tags through physical tagging, incurring minimal material and construction costs, representing a reasonable implementation cost for conventional intelligent garden renovations.

[0038] The management organization code, plant code, and individual plant code constitute a three-segment hierarchical semantic coding system. The management organization code corresponds to the organization domain, the plant code corresponds to the species domain, and the individual plant code corresponds to the individual domain. The management organization code is used to isolate the data access permissions of different management entities, the plant code is used to associate with the plant encyclopedia knowledge base, and the individual plant code is used to bind individual plants.

[0039] For example, the standard encoding format of the three-segment hierarchical semantic encoding system is: management organization code - plant code - individual plant code. A single intelligent QR code is used to integrate and bind three levels of data: organization management information, plant species information, and individual plant information, achieving the technical effects of one code per item, hierarchical identification, and multi-scenario adaptation. This embodiment uses the code CS-CS1719-10.boi as an example for specific explanation. The first segment, "CS," is the management organization code, uniquely corresponding to Shanghai Chenshan Botanical Garden, used to achieve organization permission isolation and exclusive resource matching; the second segment, "CS1719," is the plant code, uniquely corresponding to Acer tataricum subsp. ginnala (Maxim.) Wesm., corresponding to its standard Chinese name and Latin name, and is used to associate and match with the background plant encyclopedia knowledge base; the third segment, "10," is the individual plant code, representing the 10th individual of this species within the corresponding organization, used to bind the plant's physical coordinates and individual-specific maintenance data.

[0040] Based on the unique three-segment hierarchical coding of this invention, it can flexibly adapt to various unconventional application scenarios. The coding fields are adaptively filled according to different management needs, and it is compatible with multiple operation modes such as general popular science, batch pre-production, unknown plant survey, and identification after labeling. The specific adapted scenarios are as follows: The first scenario is a science popularization-specific scenario where individual plant specimens do not need to be specified. In this scenario, only the management organization and plant species need to be identified; there is no need to locate specific individual plants or record individual maintenance and observation data. The individual field is replaced with a placeholder X, and the standard encoding format is: Management Organization Code-Plant Code-X, with an example code of CS-CS1719-X. This code only identifies the single species of *Acer truncatum* under the corresponding organization. All plants of the same species in the park can be uniformly labeled. Visitors can scan the code to access only general science popularization content for the species, meeting the needs of public park science popularization services. Individual data entry and operation and maintenance management permissions are disabled, making it suitable for application scenarios that only require science popularization display and do not require detailed individual management.

[0041] The second type is a pre-built scenario for general species science popularization. It does not require restrictions on management institutions or individual plants, only locking in plant species information. The encoding format is: X-plant code-X, with an example code being X-CS1719-X. This type of encoding can pre-create tags for over a thousand common garden plants in batches. It is not limited to any institution using it; any garden management unit can directly purchase and deploy it. After scanning the code, it calls the system's general standardized plant encyclopedia template, quickly completing the implementation of plant science popularization. It is highly efficient and versatile.

[0042] The third scenario is for adapting to unknown individual plants. For scenarios involving nurseries awaiting transplantation, newly added unknown plants in parks, and batch pre-made tags, the individual field abandons traditional sequential numbering and adopts a globally unique GUID.

[0043] Encoding substitution ensures, at the algorithmic level, that individual codes will never be repeated.

[0044] An example code is CS-CS1719-e8d0e2b4845f4bbbb2b1f973219203d9. During implementation, management agencies can pre-produce blank tags with individual GUID codes in batches. Once an unknown plant is discovered during a park survey, the tags can be directly affixed and deployed, taking effect immediately. Visitors can scan the code to view species information. After completing identity authorization via SMS verification, park management personnel can access the backend management interface to supplement and enter individual plant information, maintenance records, and observation data, achieving subsequent binding of the temporary GUID code with the actual individual plant, and completing the standardized filing and management of unknown plants.

[0045] For example, during a plant survey at Shanghai Chenshan Botanical Garden, if a *Acer tataricum* is found, a random QR code can be used to attach a tag. After the tag is attached, visitors can scan the code to see the plant's informational text. However, botanical garden staff can access the individual plant's information via SMS verification at the bottom of the QR code interface, linking the individual plant code to the specific plant. This allows for convenient and complete recording of plant observation records and maintenance information.

[0046] The fourth scenario involves preliminary surveys and tagging of plants before species identification, with the coding format: Management Agency Code-X-GUID. This scenario is suitable for preliminary plant surveys in the field and parks. Before expert identification of plant species, the management agency code identifies the management entity, and the GUID code uniquely identifies each individual plant, allowing for priority physical tagging. After expert identification of species information, management personnel can scan the code to access the management interface, supplementing and improving species data, ecological survey data, and phenological observation records, achieving a flexible operational model of tagging first, identification later, and then filing.

[0047] The fifth scenario is a survey scenario where both the institution and species are yet to be determined, with the coding format: XX-GUID. In this scenario, there is no pre-set management institution or species information; individual plants are distinguished solely by GUID coding. This is suitable for large-scale, open-style garden ecological surveys. After labeling, the system's pre-set management group is authorized by default to input information. Institutional and species information can be gradually added later to complete the comprehensive archiving of plant information, adapting to temporary, large-scale garden plant surveys.

[0048] In terms of user interaction and function rendering, the management module 30 has a built-in dual-mode dynamic rendering mechanism. The management module 30 identifies the identity carried by the user who scans the code to distinguish between the identity of a visitor and the identity of an administrator.

[0049] It is understood that the dual-mode dynamic rendering mechanism based on user identity authentication in this invention is a core technology adapted to the dual business scenarios of "public science popularization and opening + professional operation and maintenance management" in large botanical gardens. Unlike the fixed and static mode of traditional plant QR code scanning pages, where everyone displays the same interface, this system sets up a layered logic of identity recognition, dynamic routing, and differentiated content rendering for the same QR code access link.

[0050] Specifically, its core principle is that the management module 30 pre-builds two independent permission systems in the background: visitor access permissions and administrator operation and maintenance permissions. When the mobile terminal scans the code to request access, the management module 30 automatically identifies the current user's identity token and accurately distinguishes between two user groups: unauthorized ordinary visitors and authorized administrators. For the unified access URL address corresponding to the same QR code, the system performs dynamic routing distribution according to the user's identity type and intelligently switches between two completely independent display and interaction modes to achieve a differentiated output effect of "one code, two interfaces, and multiple services with the same link".

[0051] When the system identifies the user as a regular visitor, it automatically switches to a science popularization display mode, prioritizing the loading of a lightweight HTML5 rich media page. This page dynamically renders standardized species introductions, exclusive science popularization graphics and texts, local cultural stories, and ornamental characteristics, meeting the public service needs of the botanical garden for public study and science popularization. When the system identifies the user as a certified administrator, it automatically switches to management operation mode, blocking the lightweight public science popularization interface and loading professional data collection forms, maintenance record filling, phenological observation registration, plant asset editing, and abnormal situation reporting interfaces. This supports park staff in completing routine and time-series refined plant management operations.

[0052] The significant benefits of this mechanism are as follows: First, it achieves clear separation of service levels, decoupling public science education services from professional operation and maintenance management business logic. This avoids the problems of mixed interfaces, chaotic permissions, and accidental access to management functions by ordinary users, which are common in traditional systems, greatly improving system security and user experience. Second, it adapts to the complex scenario of large botanical gardens with both high-volume public access and high-frequency professional operation and maintenance. One set of QR code hardware can support two business systems without distinguishing between science education signs and management signs, significantly reducing the cost of signage deployment and updates in the park. Third, it supports long-term time-series data accumulation. Administrators can repeatedly scan codes to conduct periodic phenological surveys and update maintenance records, continuously building plant growth datasets with complete time dimensions, providing reliable data support for botanical garden germplasm resource research, growth pattern analysis, and optimization of refined maintenance strategies. Fourth, the architecture is highly scalable, with the service layer and data layer completely decoupled. Customized functional modules can be added for different exhibition areas and different management teams in the future, adapting to the multi-scenario, differentiated, and continuously iterative smart management needs of large botanical gardens.

[0053] The management module 30 identifies user identity tokens through a QR code scanning terminal, distinguishes between ordinary visitors and administrators, and performs dynamic routing switching for the same QR code unified access link.

[0054] like Figure 3 As shown, unauthorized visitors will be automatically entered into an HTML5 rich media science popularization display mode, where they can view publicly available content such as plant encyclopedias, species introductions, and ecological characteristics for free.

[0055] like Figure 4 As shown, administrators who have been authorized by SMS or account password authentication can switch to management operation mode and output and display plant maintenance data collection forms, such as data collection forms, maintenance record entry, phenological observation registration, asset information modification and other operation and maintenance functions. This accurately realizes the layered service effect of unauthorized access to popular science services and differentiated authorization for plant management, and achieves logical decoupling between the system service layer and the data layer.

[0056] In the end-to-cloud collaborative process, when the mobile terminal scans the smart QR code to hang the sign, it automatically parses the three-segment hierarchical coding information of BOI and sends an institution domain permission verification request to the management module 30 in the cloud. The management module 30 in the cloud retrieves the preset configuration file of the corresponding institution. After the verification is passed, it dynamically assembles personalized science popularization display content or back-end management operation interface according to the current user identity, so as to realize differentiated service output for different institutions and different user identities.

[0057] like Figure 5 As shown, the IoT component 20 can be equipped with a variety of outdoor-adaptive smart sensing devices, including plant positioning device 21, ambient temperature sensor 22, ambient humidity sensor 23, soil temperature and humidity sensor, light sensor, rainfall monitoring device, and plant growth sensing device. It can collect multi-dimensional growth environment data and plant status data of plants in various sections of a large botanical garden around the clock and automatically.

[0058] Among them, the growth environment data covers microenvironmental parameters such as local temperature, air humidity, soil moisture, light duration, and precipitation data in the park, while the plant status data includes intrinsic information such as plant location coordinates, growth status, phenological changes, and abnormal growth status. It can accurately capture the differentiated garden microenvironment and plant growth status of different exhibition areas and different sections of large botanical gardens.

[0059] All raw monitoring data collected by the IoT component 20 is uploaded to the cloud management module 30 in real time and stably via wireless transmission. The management module 30 then performs unified data reception, cleaning, storage, intelligent analysis, and classification archiving. This system relies on a unique mapping mechanism with a three-segment hierarchical coding system to accurately bind each set of IoT monitoring data to the corresponding institution, species, and individual plant file. This solves the problems of data scrambling and difficulty in tracing caused by the large number of plants and dispersed areas in large botanical gardens. It precisely achieves integrated, full-lifecycle digital management and control of individual plant assets, including filing, real-time status monitoring, routine maintenance records, full-cycle phenological observation, and abnormal status early warning.

[0060] By deeply integrating IoT sensing with hierarchical coding and identification, a smart management system for large botanical gardens is constructed, which features "one file per plant, real-time monitoring, data traceability, and precise management." This system comprehensively meets the needs of large botanical gardens for large-scale, refined, zoned, and long-term smart garden operation and maintenance and germplasm resource management.

[0061] like Figure 6 As shown, the management module 30 is pre-configured with two independent management entities, namely a first management entity 31 and a second management entity 32. The first management entity 31 and the second management entity 32 are uniquely associated with different first management organization codes and second management organization codes, such as SZDX, tianshanschool and CS. The management organization codes enable the independent account and permission system of different garden management organizations.

[0062] For the same plant variety within the system, different management organizations can independently edit, upload, and bind exclusive popular science graphics and text materials, regional characteristic plant culture stories, customized plant care priorities, and refined care plans.

[0063] The management module 30 can accurately match the exclusive configuration data of the corresponding management institution based on the institution code obtained by scanning and parsing. For the same plant varieties, it loads and displays the exclusive plant display interface of the corresponding institution in a differentiated manner. This makes the labeling of the same plant under different management institutions, the popular science content, cultural interpretation, maintenance standards and management style presented by scanning the code are all independent and different. It completely breaks the limitation of the traditional uniform and solidified plant popular science content, which cannot adapt to the personalized operation of multiple institutions. It meets the differentiated operation needs of different garden units for brand display, popular science customization and localized maintenance management.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 7-9Based on a layered coding system and a multi-institutional differentiated rendering mechanism, a standardized intelligent plant tag generation process is set up. It can adapt to core functions such as independent configuration of multiple institutions, binding of differentiated content for the same species, and adaptive generation of multi-scene coding. It fully connects technical logic such as institutional permission isolation, personalized popular science and maintenance content customization, and dynamic parsing and rendering of QR codes. The specific tag generation steps are as follows: Step S1: The exclusive plaque generation management interface is rendered and displayed in the background of the plaque module 10. This management interface is associated with independent permission accounts of different management institutions. Only authorized administrators of the corresponding institutions can enter and operate it, so as to realize the isolation of plaque production permissions of multiple institutions and ensure the independence of plant data and customized content of each institution from the source.

[0065] Step S2: Responding to the configuration operation instructions of the authorized administrator, i.e. the first user, on the management interface for generating the plaque, the system retrieves the exclusive configuration template of the corresponding organization based on the currently logged-in management organization identity, and adaptively generates the management organization configuration interface and the personalized plant management interface that match the attributes of the organization. It supports each organization to independently edit exclusive popular science graphics, regional cultural stories, customized maintenance focus, local maintenance standards and other differentiated content.

[0066] Step S3: Based on the loaded management organization interface and plant management interface, batch collect and enter complete management organization information and plant full-dimensional management information; among which, plant management information includes plant basic file information, introduction and traceability information, refined maintenance plan, geographical location information, annual phenological observation data, real-scene image materials and other multi-dimensional data, and binds the current organization's customized popular science content and maintenance knowledge base data for this species, providing data support for subsequent differentiated page rendering.

[0067] Step S4: Link and bind the verified management organization-specific information, plant species information, and organization-customized content. Combine the aforementioned three-segment BOI hierarchical coding rules to adaptively generate coding fields that are suitable for different scenarios. Finally, integrate and generate a unique smart plant tag to achieve integrated encapsulation of multi-layer information of "organization-species-individual".

[0068] The detailed execution process of step S4 is as follows: Step S41: The system establishes a one-to-one correspondence between management agency information and target plant information, generates unique agency-plant association mapping data, ensures that each species and each individual plant can be accurately assigned to the corresponding management agency, prevents data confusion between multiple agencies, and matches the system's permission isolation mechanism.

[0069] Step S42: Based on the institution-plant association mapping data, the coding fields are automatically adapted according to the actual application scenario. For the standard planting scenario, a standard code of "management institution code - plant code - individual plant code" is generated. For unknown plants and general science application scenarios, the corresponding fields are replaced with X placeholders or GUID unique codes. Finally, a unique QR code integrating three layers of semantic information is generated. The QR code can be parsed and recognized by mobile devices, allowing ordinary tourists and authorized administrators (secondary users) to complete the scanning interaction and retrieve differentiated popular science content and operation and maintenance management permissions, respectively.

[0070] Step S43: Integrate the management organization's identity information, plant full-dimensional management data, organization-specific customized content, and the finally generated layered coded QR code to complete the overall synthesis of the smart plant tag. The tag data is synchronously uploaded to the cloud management module 30 for archiving, realizing real-time linkage and binding between the tag entity and the cloud data.

[0071] Step S5: The first user can perform secondary interaction and editing maintenance based on the generated plant QR code at any time. The system responds to the interaction command, retrieves and refreshes the corresponding management agency interface and plant management interface, and supports subsequent iterative updates of popular science content, maintenance plans and individual plant information. It can achieve unchanged coding and dynamic updates of background content, continuously adapting to the plant's full life cycle management and the personalized operation needs of multiple institutions.

[0072] like Figure 10 As shown, the left side of the sign can display the plant's name, below which is its Latin scientific name, and at the bottom is the management organization of the plant. The right side can display a QR code, which can be etched onto the sign, allowing visitors and administrators to access the plant's details by scanning the QR code with their mobile devices.
