-Trac is a '''minimalistic''' approach to '''web-based''' management of
-'''software projects'''. Its goal is to simplify effective tracking and handling of software issues, enhancements and overall progress.

-All aspects of Trac have been designed with the single goal to 
-'''help developers write great software''' while '''staying out of the way'''
-and imposing as little as possible on a team's established process and
-culture.
+== Summary ==
 
-As all Wiki pages, this page is editable, this means that you can
-modify the contents of this page simply by using your
-web-browser. Simply click on the "Edit this page" link at the bottom
-of the page. WikiFormatting will give you a detailed description of
-available Wiki formatting commands.
+Pulso ONG is a platform for collecting migrant data via SMS surveys.
 
-"[wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] ''yourenvdir'' initenv" created
-a new Trac environment, containing a default set of wiki pages and some sample
-data. This newly created environment also contains 
-[wiki:TracGuide documentation] to help you get started with your project.
+== Full Description ==
 
-You can use [wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] to configure
-[http://trac.edgewall.org/ Trac] to better fit your project, especially in
-regard to ''components'', ''versions'' and ''milestones''. 
+NGOs cannot respond well to migrants’ needs without quality metrics on migrant demographics, activities, interactions, and quality of life. Collecting this data is challenging  because migrants are a not a settled population, may not have easy anonymous access to internet, and may distrust submitting their details in a non-anonymized form. SMS is widely used in Latin America, with prepaid phones frequently used by migrants. 
 
+''Pulso ONG'' is a platform for executing brief questionnaire campaigns by SMS to an arbitrary set of mobile phone numbers. The responses are collected, stored, visualized, and made available through open data initiatives.
 
-TracGuide is a good place to start.
+Spontaneous surveys sent to large sets of people can be useful in quickly determining if proposed legislation has a factual merit; or a survey can be sent twice, once before and once after policy is enacted, to determine the effect it has had on migrants. 
 
-Enjoy! [[BR]]
-''The Trac Team''
+This functionality completed for the America's Datafest includes a web-based interface to manage a set of surveys and their questions, groups of participants, a question queue manager that sends SMS messages, and a web hook that receives responses. In the future the platform can be extended to function as a general communication intermediary between migrants with mobile phones and NGOs.

+ * Survey participant is only a phone number (i.e. it's basically anonymous).
+ * Questions are associated with surveys, which are scheduled to be sent on a specific date.
+ * Once survey begins, questions are frozen to prevent changing parameters.
+ * Responses are associated to the participant and survey.
+ * Questions are formatted using a simple markup syntax to allow short questions < 160 characters.
+ * Question format is parsed to ensure options can be validated against participant responses.
+ * Participant is notified if they send an invalid response.
+ * Participant is notified when the survey is complete.
+ * Reports viewable for each survey.
+ * CSV download of survey data.
