Electronic Forms on Mobile Devices for Landfill Emission Data
The Bureau of Sanitation (BOS) owns and maintains five (5) closed landfill sites. In order to check the status of these five (5) closed landfill sites, field staffs regularly collect data from air, soil, and ground water. Currently, field staffs use paper version of forms to collect the field data. The data collected on the paper forms in the field manually entered into spreadsheets or transcribed into Word documents. Once all the data is collected, the data is reported to various agencies including California Regional Water Quality Control Board, South Coast Air Quality Management District, and California Environmental Protection Agencies.
Field staffs use enormous amount of time when they write the data on paper forms. In addition, manually entering the data on paper forms into spreadsheets or transcribing it into Word documents is not only greatly time consuming, but also prone to errors. Moreover, the acquired data is not stored in any central repository such as database system. Although the landfill field data is critical to protect public health and environment, and to develop the future plan, the data has not been effectively managed.
This Task Order Solicitation (TOS) is to develop a database system to manage landfill data and to provide electronic forms running on mobile devices such as tablet or smart phone. The data collected on the electronic forms should be transmitted to a database over wireless communication channel when the mobile devices are brought back to the office at the end of the data. Thus, the system should include electronic forms, database system, and automated data transmission from the e-Forms to database in an efficient manner.
