Submitted by Hasib Ahsan on Tue, 06/12/2012 - 10:36

We mPower Social Enterprises Limited are working in Bangladesh, India and in the Middle East (http://www.mpower-social.com/) using mobile technology to get realtime information from the field and the beneficiary gets instand feedback.

We are planning to track the agricultural information of the farmers, agri market and monitor the growth of the seeds. That's why planning to develop an android application to get the information. Frontline staff/worker of NGO's/Organizations will collect the data from the field.

We developed and implemented mobile based public health module and health of livestock animal. Frontline worker goes from door to door of beneficiaries carrying Android mobile handset. An application is installed in the mobile handset and there are customized questionnaires based on the NGO activities. The frontline woker ask the beneficiary/client about their health status or livestock animal health status. The collected data is sent using EDGE/GPRS and a dashboard is created in the web for each and indivisual beneficiary. The doctor or the vatenararian can see the complexity of the beneficiary or the livestock animal and can suggest or give instruction to the fronline staff and then the frontline staff convey the instruction to the beneficiaries at realtime basis.
