Hi, Sorry for top-posting, but on my phone. I agree that ODK makes sense for this. As mentioned earlier, we already have a platform, Fieldata, with a web interface, where the data collection part is built on top of ODK. We can offer this both free of cost as well as without restrictions on extracting the data. Also would be glad to help out in setting up the forms. Please let me know.
