Get to Know the Tool

Stipa supports the pursuit of science-based natural resource conservation by helping users collect structured data on commonplace devices and software.

Stipa goes where you go

Stipa uses the IndexedDB API to store data locally on your device. No internet or cellular service required — stipa provides the same great experience regardless of where you find yourself in the world.

How it works

Stipa standardizes data collection through the use of the Stipa Data Collection Protocol — an XML document that specifies what information needs to be gathered for a particular project. It's perfectly human-readable and can be viewed and modified with nothing more than a text editor.

Navigate with ease

Stipa provides a simple drill-down, drill-up approach to navigating user interfaces. All Data Collection Protocols are presented in a similar way, so you don't have to spend time learning a new user interface every time the data changes.

Stipa makes designing, managing, and accessing new Data Collection Protocols a breeze. Our partners are creating Data Collection Protocols that can be used right out of the box. Use one of these Protocols or tweek one a bit to accomodate your specific data collection needs.
