Hello ODK world,
I am Luca from Germany. I am a geographer working for a GeoIT company. We do a lot of surveys on land cover, environmental and agricultural parameters especially for verification of earth observation data (satellite images) in international development cooperation projects. Usually we consult and support our local partners to set up and execute the field survey. ODK is close to perfect for this, it is easy to set up and adjust also for non-programmers and runs on nearly all smartphones. I am happy that more and more, the handling and recording of geospatial features (points, lines polygons) has been integrated. Great!

Hi, My name is Raffy and I am from the Philippines. I am currently developing an ODK application for collecting fisheries landing data. Fisheries catch monitoring is data intensive and occurs in places where internet connection can be challenging. Perfect for ODK. I hope to learn a lot from this forum and create a product that is useful.

Hi everyone,
I am based in Nigeria. It feels great to be here.
I work as a researcher in my organization and ventured into the use of ODK for field surveys. I have used ODK for some research works here in Nigeria, although not configured by me. I am moving forward to learning how to configure and set up research forms.
My twitter handle is @hebbieolatunji. I find ODK very interesting. Thank you.

Hi everyone, I'm Fabien from France.

I am a geomatics student doing an apprenticeship in a company that needs to collect field data mainly to follow reforestation projects.
I've discovered ODK and Kobotoolbox (that uses ODK) this past 4 months. We try to developp several forms to see if ODK is able to fulfill our needs.
From what I've seen, ODK has a great and very responsive community.

I'm glad to be part of it!

Hi,
I am new to ODK and wants to build an ODK form for ecological studies in Indonesia for my students. I still have some error to work on but it's kind of fun to create form and actually use it. Here's my researchgate link https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Nurul_Winarni

Thanks!
