Note: A Hamina Onsite subscription is required to use Hamina Onsite. A Hamina Onsite or Hamina Planner subscription is required to view survey results in the Hamina Planner web app. With a Hamina Onsite subscription and either a Hamina Clip or Oscium Nomad Wi-Fi measurement device, use Hamina Onsite to take measurements of Wi-Fi networks, create site surveys, and produce heatmaps that show Wi-Fi coverage. After getting a subscription to Hamina Onsite and either the Hamina Clip or Oscium Nomad Wi-Fi measurement hardware, create projects either in the Hamina Network Planner web application or directly on your device with the Hamina Onsite application. Then, go on site with the Oscium Nomad and perform a site survey to gather data using Hamina Onsite's point survey, continuous survey, or all-new line survey modes. Add field notes to the map, too! Once the survey is done, Hamina Onsite automatically synchronizes survey results to the cloud for in-depth analysis with the Hamina Network Planner web app. View survey results, add and remove survey paths, and share survey projects with colleagues for collaboration.

Locust swarms travel 130 km per day. By the time you see them, it’s too late. AcreScope tells you where locust swarms have been spotted, and where they could be going next. What you can do: Early warnings near you: Get notified when a swarm is reported within range of your fields. Forecast: Our risk model combines swarm sightings with environmental data on rainfall, soil moisture, vegetation, and temperature. See why: Explore your risk score with detailed graphs of what factors are driving it. Your region: Browse recent sightings reported by other farmers and field workers near you. Your community: Contribute to the early-warning network. When you see a swarm, add your own sighting. Built for the field: AcreScope works in multiple languages: English, Swahili, Arabic, and French Personal Risk Score: See a location-aware risk on the Home screen. Tap “Why this risk?” for a clear breakdown (distance, swarm type, seasonality, etc.). Why farmers use it: A swarm can destroy large portions of cropland in a matter of hours. Knowing where locusts are can help you stay in the know. Data & transparency: This app has been accomplished thanks to the valuable data provided through the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)’s Locust-hub (https://locust-hub-hqfao.hub.arcgis.com/). The data is the appreciated results of field surveys and control operations on desert locust conducted by the FAO member countries. We wish to express our gratitude to FAO, its three Desert Locust Regional Commissions (CLCPRO, CRC and SWAC) and the member countries for the shared data. AcreScope displays public locust observation feeds (e.g., FAO RAMSES) alongside user-submitted Community Sightings. We are not affiliated with FAO. Data availability varies by region and season. UGC & safety: Community submissions use structured fields (no free-text) and are pre-moderated. Sightings can be reported in-app, and abusive uploaders can be restricted. Privacy & permissions Location permission is optional and used only to show observations and risk near you.
