Deploy offline

Earth Defenders Toolkit Offline

The reality of many communities is that Internet connectivity is unreliable, or non existent. For that reason Earth Defenders Toolkit can be deployed to computers on the ground so that all content can live offline, in a local network, and can be synced whenever the device goes online.

A computer running EDT offline creates a hotspot, where community members in wifi range can download and install applications listed at the Earths Defender’s Kit platform such as Mapeo and Terrastories, explore guides and use cases in different languages, and also access extra assets to facilitate onboarding of tools.

On the local network community members also have access to applications for storing their content locally, as well as sharing or syncing it, locally or through the Internet.

Bellow you can try a demo application of what the services are like in the local network, and acessed through the hotspot. Usernames are "demo" and passwords are "demo1234".
