Re: DHIS2 Mobile

 

Hi Olav,

Thank you for your prompt response.
Here is more information about my case:


- is this aggregate data or case-based data?
I am dealing with aggregate data

- what type of phones will be used: do the phones support java? If it is smartphones, do they use a browser that supports offline storage?
I am yet to assess the phones available on the market. However, it is likely that the phones will support Java at the minimum. We will also want to benefit from the offline data entry capabilities of DHIS2 so we will most likely use phones that support offline storage.

- do you require support for offline data entry?
Yes. Could you please kindly explain how this can impact my case if the response is yes or no.

- how much data are they supposed to enter? If it is only a few data elements, the new SMS reporting might be an option.
The data is not much. for each data set, we are talking about between 35 to 40 data elements.

 
Thank you so much.

Best regards.
John

Hi John,
there are quite a few options for reporting to DHIS2 using mobile phones, can you give us a bit more information about your case:
- is this aggregate data or case-based data?
- what type of phones will be used: do the phones support java? If it is smartphones, do they use a browser that supports offline storage?
- do you require support for offline data entry?
- how much data are they supposed to enter? If it is only a few data elements, the new SMS reporting might be an option.

Regards
Olav
