I work in the biological control field throughout Australia and Asia and i manage the data we have accumulated over more than 30 years of research and many weed and pest projects.
My knowledge of computers is limited to 2-finger typing but i know my data and i know what i need it to do. Nevertheless i have found i can create a relatively complex ODK form that makes data entry in the field simpler and eliminates the necessity for double-entry - thanks ODK team!
Next, i will need to learn ODK-X so that data from specimens collected in the field can be integrated with data recorded on those specimens in the lab. That's daunting to me.
