Hi to the ODK Community, this is Bruno from Belgium, based in Turkey because of love and travelling around the world because of love as well. Currently drafting this introduction from Trinidad.
I have come to visit this forum more often these days as I sometimes need advanced assistance, so I thought it would be fair that I introduce myself to the community who deserves huge credit.
I am a researcher on matters related to social sciences, economics, international development and humanitarian assistance and often need to collect data.
What I love the most beside data related things and travelling is supporting Manchester United, I am a completely addicted fan, yeah.
So, hi everyone and thanks in advance for your help to all of you!
Hi everybody My name is Marco Galindo, born and raised in Guatemala City. I currently work with Family Health International 360, which is why I started getting familiar with the ODK suite. We really need the ODK tools to be able to gather information in rural areas, as our enumerators don't usually have internet anywhere. Recently we actually developed an app that's capable of communicating with ODK Collect and made it so that there's a login in the app that automatically changes the metadata associated to ODK Collect. This way, we have a more sophisticated way or setting the username, and also, we avoid errors there, by making sure the username in the metadata actually corresponds to someone in our organization. We were trying to send data to the metadata in CSV format, but haven't figured it out yet, as the cache is making it difficult for us to change the metadata frequently.
During the process of working with ODK I've had several questions, and I am surprised that this forum actually gave me the answers, and really quick as well, I really came to like this community, even helping with translations in Spanish from time to time.
In terms of other activities, I am actually super interested in artificial intelligence and I plan to pursue a master's degree in that field. I also like playing videogames a lot xD

All the best!
I'm an American, currently based in the UK where I studied and met my husband.
I help teams across countries to design, implement, and analyse face-to-face household surveys. I specialise in survey support to countries with severely outdated or inaccurate census data (censuses are typically used to select representative samples of households for surveys). I tend to use gridded population datasets such as WorldPop instead.
I developed the workflow and interface for GridSample .org which enables non-technical survey experts to select gridded population surveys in low- and intermittant-bandwidth settings. I also provided input into revisions to Campaigns.hotosm .org in 2019. Many of the surveys I support use OMK and ODK to navigate to survey clusters, perform household listings, and collect data.
I am deeply committed to interdisciplinary cross-cultural collaborations, and have been a contributor to the Integrated Deprived Area Mapping System (IdeaMaps) Network. The IdeaMaps Network aims to integrated existing (largely siloed) communities of "slum" mappers to be able to produce routine, accurate maps of deprived urban areas at scale. If you're interested, you can read more about our approach and methods elsewhere.
I enjoy singing songs and strumming my ukulele outside of work.
I'm Daniel from Córdoba, Argentina; I work for Development Gateway organization as technical consultant (I develop backend sw in Java) and we started using ODK/Enketo to create surveys for a project in Africa.
I like chess, watch soccer (here Im fan of Talleres) and spend time with my daughter, Julia.
