Dual purpose QR Code support
The barcode scanning process supports QR codes that contain an website URL with record information embedded in URL parameters. A QR code can in this instance serve two purposes and provide a website URL for visitors and contain record details to be used by staff with the Floria App.
Supported parameters are:
•qr : A number representing an accession record identifier.
•i : A number or character represent an accession item qualifer.
•a : A combination of numbers and letters representing an accession number with qualifier.

A successful scan will retreive accession with record number 1567
•https://collection.mygarden.org/taxon-10637.aspx?qr=1567&i=2
