Hello Nick!
THanks for your response. I asked because I am using ODK Collect as my
primary app for data collection in these parts also, but thought they might
have been something else that I don't know about out is out there - the
others that you mentioned I have also looked them over, but I will
deffinetaily look into the OsmAnd. I will share some work pic when the
project is up and running. It is going to be setup in the indegenious
communities in Guyana (kind of similar to the areas you worked in).

Again, thanks.
Rox.
