Information on local rice accessions is stored in a system called Agrobiodiversity Information System (AgrobIS) to solve issues on conservation. However, due to the in-comprehensiveness of the search function embedded in the system, it is lack of data filtering feature to obtain specific accessions. This becomes a cumbersome task for researchers who are keen to acquire rice accessions, which are filtered based on selected trait values as they are required to go to the genebank and use a separate system named Rice Genebank Information System (RGBIS) that contains data filtering features. However, the RGBIS is a desktop application that has its limitation because it can only be accessed through a computer after it has been installed rather than being able to use it online. This paper describes the development of a dashboard that is able to provide information on rice germplasm focusing on high-yield, pest and diseases, and quality and specialty. The approaches taken were gathering requirements, dashboard designing, Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) process and the utilization of visualisation tools. The developed MARDI Rice Genebank dashboard is accessible online which allows users to search and retrieve information on specific accessions based on selected traits.
