Mobile Data Collection Solutions
Specializing in ODK (Open Data Kit), KoBoToolbox, and CSPro, as well as building fully custom mobile applications tailored to your specific operational requirements. We empower humanitarian organizations, research agencies, and enterprise teams across Africa to design, deploy, and manage highly resilient digital data collection solutions with robust offline capture capabilities.
Leading Framework & Custom App Expertise
We engineer secure datasets, skip structures, custom mobile applications, and interactive server gateways customized to your exact operational requirements.
ODK & KoBoToolbox
Expert custom XLSForm development, server deployments (Aggregate & Central), advanced skip logics, complex calculations, and strict validation constraints.
Custom App Development
Design and engineering of custom mobile applications tailored to your specific business logic, offline sync rules, and proprietary database requirements.
CSPro for Android
Large-scale census, household surveys, and demographic assessments with robust local offline databases and structured synchronization workflows.
ONA & Dashboards
Deployment of high-security encrypted databases, custom Webhooks, and API integrations with visualization dashboards (PowerBI, Tableau) for real-time reporting.
Bespoke Custom Mobile Applications
Beyond off-the-shelf survey platforms, we build and develop custom mobile applications tailored specifically to your unique workflow rules, offline data capture requirements, and custom server integrations.
General Mobile Data Collection Process
Our proven, meticulously engineered step-by-step approach ensures high data quality, seamless field collection, and instant analytical availability.
Requirement Gathering & Questionnaire Design
We collaborate with your domain experts to thoroughly review paper-based templates, operational workflows, and indicators. We establish strict questionnaire logic, validation constraints, and multi-language requirements before any system implementation begins.
Form Digitization & XLSForm Authoring
Using standard XLSForm protocols, we write clean syntax models to digitize the survey. This includes custom programming for nested skip patterns, sophisticated mathematical calculators, coordinate range constraints, and media-capture properties.
Server Setup & Secure Database Deployment
We provision high-availability database servers (e.g., ODK Central or private KoBoToolbox instances). All systems are hardened with HTTPS/SSL encryption, automated security patches, role-based user access controls, and persistent storage backups.
Field Enumeration & Offline Device Deployment
Smartphones and tablets are deployed with secure API credentials. Enumerators collect rich geographical, photographic, signature, and textual data securely in the field. Data is saved locally, working flawlessly without any internet connection.
Real-time Server Synchronization & QA
As soon as enumerators connect to cellular or Wi-Fi networks, data uploads securely to our servers. System administrators monitor submissions via audit trails, correcting anomalies and ensuring total data integrity in real-time.
Data Aggregation, Visualization & Analysis
Uploaded data aggregates instantly. We construct beautiful interactive dashboards (leveraging React frameworks, PowerBI, or ONA tools) that map geographical trends, track completion stats, and export formatted datasets for advanced analytics.
Full Uptime Support & Proactive System Audits
Livecode Technologies commits to strict operational service level agreements. Every framework implementation is backed by robust data protection policies, continuous server maintenance, and high availability hosting infrastructure tailored to sustain heavy simultaneous enumerator syncs.
