About this app

The Wash Data Collector app “bdwashdata” is a powerful tool that empowers organizations, researchers, and communities to gather essential data on Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) initiatives. This versatile mobile application offers seamless data collection capabilities in both offline and online modes, ensuring that critical information is collected, stored, and analysed efficiently, even in remote and resource-constrained areas.

1. Offline and Online Data Collection: bdwashdata enables users to collect data in areas with limited or no internet connectivity. Fieldworkers can enter survey responses and capture essential information even when offline, with data synchronisation automatically taking place when an internet connection is restored.

2. Customizable Surveys: Tailor your data collection surveys to match the specific requirements of your WASH projects. Create and customize surveys with various question types, including multiple-choice, text, and photo uploads.

3. Geo-Tagging and Mapping: Capture the precise location of water sources, sanitation facilities, and hygiene initiatives using GPS capabilities. Visualise data on an interactive map for better decision-making and resource allocation.

4. Data Validation: Ensure the accuracy and quality of collected data with built-in validation rules and error checks. Fieldworkers receive real-time feedback to minimise data entry errors.

5. Offline Forms and Templates: Access predefined survey templates and forms even when offline, allowing for consistency in data collection across various locations and projects.

6. Photo Documentation: Enhance data with photo attachments. Capture images to provide visual evidence of WASH conditions and progress.

7. Data Security: Protect sensitive data with robust encryption and authentication measures. Rest assured that your data is secure throughout the data collection and transmission process.

8. Data Export and Analysis: Export collected data in various formats (CSV, Excel) for in-depth analysis. Generate insightful reports and visualise trends to inform evidence-based decision-making.

9. Real-time Collaboration: Enable real-time collaboration among fieldworkers, supervisors, and project managers through secure data sharing and access permissions.
