The features of the data collection platform

OVERVIEW

Denkami is a data collection platform for collecting data on your mobile, tablet or computer, data can be collected while you are online or offline. Data remains on the phone and can be shared between mobile users, synchronisation of the data between users is automatic.

One of the main features of the system is the way the collected data is structured. The data structure of the platform implements a relational database, all registration data is linked to subsequent collected data, this is shown in the data structure graph below. With this structure you can not only design single surveys but also surveys where there is need to collect additonal data at a later time. In the screenshot of the mobile app you can see how this is implemented, for the registered equipment in the maintenance survey there are multiple inspection questionnaires are added.
