Doria · Field Intelligence Module 01
Doria equips rangers and conservation officers with structured, geo-tagged field reporting — turning isolated incident observations into a continent-wide intelligence picture on wildlife crime across Sub-Saharan Africa.
Wildlife poaching is one of the most severe and persistent threats to conservation across Sub-Saharan Africa. Each year, tens of thousands of animals are lost to illegal hunting — driven by international demand for ivory, bushmeat, skins, and live exotic species. Protected areas are vast and chronically under-resourced, with rangers covering territories of thousands of square kilometres with minimal connectivity and no standardised reporting tools.
Doria's Field Reporting module gives rangers a structured, geo-tagged system to document every incident in real time — from snare discoveries and elephant carcasses to live trade operations. Each submission is time-stamped, photographed, and automatically routed to wardens and law enforcement through a tamper-evident chain of custody. Over time, aggregated data reveals poaching hotspots, seasonal corridors, and repeat offender patterns — turning fragmented field notes into operational intelligence.
The Crisis
01 / 04
The report travels by radio, then by hand, then into a logbook. Each step adds delay and loses detail. By the time a team moves, the people responsible have gone.
Paper logs are hard to read as a pattern. Effort spreads over quiet ground while busy areas go unwatched. Vehicles and aircraft move without a picture of where incidents cluster.
Tools that collect everything without grading it bury commanders in alerts. Teams learn to tune the feed out. The report that mattered gets read too late.
Apps that need a connection fail where rangers actually work. Reports are written down to be entered later, and some never are. The gaps fall where the threats are.
How It Works
01 / 04
Every report is geo-tagged and lands on the command map. Command sends a team from the Ops Console, and the order moves from acknowledged to en route to on scene. Everyone sees the same incident and the same progress.
Reports are gridded on the map so hotspots stand out. Commanders plan patrols around where incidents cluster. The picture sharpens with each report that comes in.
Critical reports go straight to commanders, and weaker ones wait for an analyst. Several weak reports in one place raise a single alert. Field sensors add their own reports of gunshots, chainsaws and vehicles, with a person making the final call.
Rangers file the same way with or without coverage. The report keeps its original time and place while it waits. Once the device reconnects, it is delivered and graded like any other.
