Samples of Kartoza Mergin Maps experience

The graphic below shows a WASH survey we supported in 2020 for the Waterberg Biosphere Reserve (funded by USAID Resilient Waters). Three field workers surveyed 2000 people in sixty villages in the Waterberg District of Limpopo Province in South Africa.

The map shows the distribution of villages, the inset map shows interview locations within one village and the charts show live data visualisations we set up in Metabase, linked to a PostgreSQL cloud database being updated automatically with data coming in from the field, via the mergin-db-sync utility.
