We have a concept we wish to develop for the ongoing collection of medical data in developing countries of the South Pacific.
We wish to set up an online capability to design medical (or any) forms then download them to mobile phones or netbooks.
(The idea being that it is easier to use the phones for research and data collection in rural areas)
There is an organisation called Datadyne.org that has a very good product.
We would like to build on this with ability to insert photos into the forms from the camera.
This would be for identification of the patient as well as options for images of the medical condition if applicable.
Also we want to record GPS coordinates of the data.
This has benefits for location based disease outbreaks or cluster identification of diseases.
Once the data is collected via the phones/netbooks, it is then uploaded to a central database.
As well as creating a patient record the data would be able to be used in a set of preformed reports.
Capability to select the parameters for a customised comparison of the data.
The information would also be able to be accessed via handhelds by authorised users(for example by doctors to check on a patient)
We appreciate that there are a lot of variables in this description and anticipate that certain features may need to be introduced at a later stage.
We anticipate that this would be on ongoing relationship.
We have not selected programming languages as this is not our expertise. Advise is invited.
We will also be interested in developing a website for this project.
Examples of similar work will be useful
