Our study, “Digital Profiling and Conservation Mapping of Balakat Trees (Ziziphus talanai) in Mabalacat City, Pampanga, Philippines” serves as a model for smart tree documentation. By integrating QR codes with a web-based database, we are pioneering a digital-first approach to plant research, ensuring that ecological data is more accessible than ever.

Why QR Code Integration Matters in Tree Profiling
Balakat Trees “Ziziphus talanai”
The Balakat tree (Ziziphus talanai) is a species of tree in the buckthorn family (Rhamnaceae), native to Southeast Asia, particularly the Philippines. It thrives in coastal areas, forests, and hilly regions. The tree has small, oval-shaped leaves and is known for its ecological and medicinal properties. Ziziphus is a genus of about 40 species of spiny shrubs and small trees, distributed in warm-temperate, subtropical, and tropical regions of the world.
because of that it holds significant values to:
