What is the FIA App for?
The Farm Intelligence Application is a web and mobile platform designed to be used by fam groups to support data collection and data management.
The web component aims to assist certification managers with administration, group member registration, and feedback on inspection non-conformities.
The mobile component is used by internal inspectors to conduct the internal inspections, update farmer and farm information, capture geodata in point and polygon formats, and most importantly, enable immediate feedback to farmers on farm performance and required corrective actions.

Geodata Validations
This improvement covers various validations that will inform you about the quality of geodata that has been entered into the system. For example, we will alert you when geodata entered is not within your country; we will also alert you on any geodata falls within water bodies; we have introduced more exciting validations that will improve data quality for your organization.
Producer Reporting
This section will detail how Certification Managers (CM) can use the Power BI reports available in the platform. The reports consolidate data collected during internal inspections for use by the CM.
This allows Certification Managers (CMs) to have an aggregated view of all inspection results, enabling efficient decision-making for certification.
