INATrace

Discover the INATrace App
INATrace is a digital open-source solution designed to enhance the economic conditions of smallholder farmers by improving the traceability of global supply chains. Funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and implemented by GIZ, INATrace focuses on providing an efficient internal management system for cooperatives, digitally storing supply chain data, and supporting compliance with new regulations like the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). INATrace helps cooperatives transition to fully transparent and digital processes, empowering them with complete ownership of their data and strengthening their negotiating position with buyers.

Key Functionalities
Polygon Mapping & Creation of Farmer Profiles: The INATrace App allows users to create new farmer profiles effortlessly, ensuring that all data on the cooperative’s farmers is recorded accurately. Additionally, the app provides robust polygon mapping features, enabling users to record GPS data and delineate field boundaries. To do so unique geoIDs are created based on the codes of the Asset Registry provided by Linux foundation enabling a smooth data exchange.

Deforestation risk assessment: In the desktop version, the collected polygons are displayed on a map and integrated with FAO's WHISP (What is in that plot) tool. This allows for an initial deforestation risk assessment, providing valuable insights and supporting compliance with environmental regulations.

Offline Functionality and Synchronization
Offline Usage: The INATrace App is designed for use in remote areas with limited internet access and provides offline maps. Users can record and store data offline, including farmer profiles, and GPS and polygon data. This ensures that all necessary information is captured in real-time, regardless of internet connectivity.

Synchronization: Once an internet connection is available, the app automatically syncs all recorded data with the desktop version. This seamless synchronization ensures that cooperatives have access to the most up-to-date information, fostering transparency and efficiency within the supply chain.
