Inspiration

It is inspired on the small scale fishermen´s current problems.

What it does

IDentyFish allows digitizing the fishing logbook and give to fishers useful information that guarantees sustainable fishing success.

How we built it

The app is based on the concept “user center design”. For this app we considered all the user´s needs with the help of biologists, designers and developers.

Challenges we ran into

Could develop an app able to use without internet access and using feature-phones due to small scale fishermen are people with low economic resources.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

This app is designed for being used on freebasics Facebook platform, which allows inputting and check information in places without internet access. It allows digitizing the fishing logbook and give fishers useful information that guarantees sustainable fishing success. Indirect users from different sectors can access to the information generated by fishermen.

What we learned

We learned to work with people from different interests that enriched this idea and made it possible.

What's next for IDentyFish

Get help for FishHackathon and other public and private institutes to make it possible. Then go to fishermen communities and show them the app and prove its efficiency. And the most important, try to help with this app fishermen communities to improve their life quality.
