How to handle concurrent operations by multiple users #976

Open dadiorchen opened 1 year ago

dadiorchen commented 1 year ago

For the matching tool, what will happen if multiple users open it at the same time, and do matching, the same question applies to verifying captures, right?

@dadiorchen You're right. We don't have a way of deconflicting simultaneous verification or capture matching by two users. @Kpoke What happens if we try to create a capture record for a raw_capture that already exists?

As for capture matching, I expect the second user will overwrite whatever the first user has done.

The det model proposed by Cam for species identification may be a way to solve this issue in the long term.
