mSpray is a suite of mapping tools that puts IRS campaigns into efficiency overdrive. After enumerating structures from satellite imagery and QGIS, we send Spray teams into the field with cellular-enabled tablets, showing them where they are—and where the next house is they need to spray. When the team’s tablet is within 50m of a house, they can “tag” the structure as sprayed. The field teams (and their managers at...
