Add Offline Basemap to ODK Collect

Hello Fellow Aid, Development & Social Data Practitioners!

In this tutorial, we will show you how to add your own custom background map to your mobile data collection app, ODK Collect or KoboCollect. If you're someone who works in remote areas with limited internet connectivity, then you know how important it is to have a reliable offline basemap.

With a custom offline basemap, field workers can easily see their location and the areas around them, making it easier to collect data in context. And the good news is that adding a custom basemap to your ODK Collect or KoboCollect form is a simple process.
