FLOW: Field Level Operations Watch
FLOW, Field Level Operations Watch is an online system developed by Water for People that helps communities, members, partners, volunteers and others to monitor and evaluate the progress of water installation projects and thus to reduce development time and improve success.
Using Android cell phones, combined with GPS and Google Earth software, FLOW provides users with the ability to record data from tens of thousands of water points around the world: location, service status, images, and other information. This data is then displayed online to signal whether a project is up and running, broken, or on the verge of disrepair and requiring maintenance.
