ruODK assumes some familiarity of its users with the ODK ecosystem and workflows. For a detailed overview, read the extensive ODK documentation and visit the friendly ODK forum.

ODK Central is a cloud-based data clearinghouse for digitally captured data, replacing the older software ODK Aggregate. ODK Central manages user accounts and permissions, stores form definitions, and allows data collection clients like ODK Collect to connect to it for form download and submission upload.
