Abstract

This is a report on the 4-day conference that brought together international experts. The OpenROSA consortium is a group of organizations working together to foster open source, standards-based tools for mobile data collection, aggregation, analysis, and reporting. JavaRosa is a Java library for rendering forms that are compliant with Open Data Kits (ODK XForms spec). It is the heart of many ODK tools. The emergence of JavaROSA has greatly reduced the duplication of efforts among groups developing solutions for mobile phone-based data collection. OpenROSA and JavaROSA were launched with funding from the Canadian International Development Research Centre (IDRC).
