ODK Build • ODK Build is a form designer with a drag-and-drop user interface. Build is an HTML5 web application and works best for designing simple forms. • http://opendatakit.org/use/build/ • For more powerful form designers, try XLS2XForm, Vellum, or Kobo, or PurcForms.
ODK Collect • ODK Collect renders forms into a sequence of input prompts that apply form logic, entry constraints, and repeating sub-structures. Users work through the prompts and can save the submission at any point. Finalized submissions can be sent to (and new forms downloaded from) a server. Currently, ODK Collect uses the Android platform, supports a wide variety of prompts (text, number, location, multimedia, barcodes), and works well without network connectivity. • http://opendatakit.org/use/collect/
ODK Aggregate • ODK Aggregate provides a ready-to-deploy server and data repository to: • provide blank forms to ODK Collect (or other OpenRosa clients), • accept finalized forms (submissions) from ODK Collect and manage collected data, • visualize the collected data using maps and simple graphs, • export data (e.g., as CSV files for spreadsheets, or as KML files for Google Earth), and • publish data to external systems (e.g., Google Spreadsheets or Google Fusion Tables). • http://opendatakit.org/use/aggregate/
