Hey All, I work for Goonj. (You can find more information regarding it on our website: https://goonj.org/)
Distribution of material for relief/aid is a big part of Goonj’s work. During the distribution the field staff captures various data points, such as - geographical information, recipients information, type of material given, work done etc. This data is currently being captured on a printed paper. The distribution happens in rural areas where the mobile network coverage is inadequate (if available at all) and the staff doing the distribution have very basic smartphones. Keeping these constraints (collection of offline data using basic smartphones) in mind and in order to help simplify their work, we are looking for solutions that can be used to move away from the generic paper and pen model for collecting data. In regards to this I am trying to figure out what the different organisations across the world are using to capture information in similar scenarios. Is there any particular application, tool or form that you have used and found suitable? As of now other than developing our own mobile application the only viable option seems to be Kobo toolbox. (jot forms is expensive) Any insight would be really appreciated. Thanks, Shivangi -- Datameet is a community of Data Science enthusiasts in India.
