ODK mapping of Cacao Farms in Panay Island, the Philippines

This report is a synthesis of three reports on Android Mapping of cacao plantations in Panay Island, Philippines and describes the experiences gained by the team which conducted the cacao farm mapping. The mapping of cacao plantations in the whole of Panay Island using Android devices together with the insights of the project coordinators about Geographic Information System (GIS) and Open Data Kit (ODK) were documented to provide a comprehensive overview how to use ODK for spatial data collection and analysis and how GIS can be used for further analysis of the spatial data. The report also discusses compliance with the principles for digital development. ODK is an easy to use replacement for paper data collection forms which supports locations, images, audio, video, barcodes, text and numbers.
