@soundbyte. Watching Gardening Australia last they had a segment on wild orchids and people who collect data on them. About an app for your phone where you take photos and record information on location, etc.. All web based so you can also use your DSLR and PC. Thought of you immediately. If this website isn't already in your bookmarks, might pay to have a look.

Too busy with the local orchids, finding new locations, photographing etc and doing surveys for Threatened Plants Tasmania for something extra, thanks for the information though.
One survey coming up next weekend for Prasophyllum milfordense, only found at one site in the world, early indications possibly may mean a bumper year
This property also has Caladenia saggicola which is only found in any numbers at this one site.
Photos at least a week after the survey otherwise the landowner will be inundated with trespassers looking to take photos etc, making all sorts of excuses for being on private property without permission.
