Greetings Max,
It has been done using ODK Aggregate
<ODK Aggregate - ODK Docs the server side. Aggregate
will export CSV files after upload.Is it easy to set up and reliable? While we are big supporters of the Open
Data Kit community and a big believer in their tools, I don't think that
Aggregate is all that easy to set up. As we say, "It's easy if you know
how." And while older versions of Aggregate were a little wonky, the newest
version is pretty stable. You have to watch out for large scale deployments
because hosting Aggregate can incur charges on the Google App Engine
platform.The cheapest and easiest way to aggregate is to use KoBoSync or another
offline aggregation tool. If it is important that you sync your data to a
server (for example, your enumerators are geographically spread out) then
there are other solutions. We use an Android DropBox client called
"DropSync<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ttxapps.dropsync>"
that syncs your completed data to a DropBox account in the background.We would be very interested to hear more about your ideas on a PHP/Ruby
solution for aggregation.thanks for you excellent questions and ideas,
~Neil

Greetings everyone!
Just curious...
Has anyone tried using the Kobo tools to do a survey out in the field on
numerous Android phones WITH sim cards AND then upload the results to a WEB
SERVER running some sort of aggregator in order to generate an SPSS or csv
data file??
Is it RELIABLE & easy to set up?Also, how come no one has written a PHP server script that would do the
aggregating since Java servlet hosting is EXPENSIVE compared to CHEAP
shared Linux hosting where PHP5 and Ruby are already included?Thanks!

But PHP is available everywhere – even on $3 per month Linux hosting plans.
