Tiivistelmä
Anicare is a foundation which provides a smart solution solving reindeer herd-ing challenges. It was born in Finland with keeping reindeer herding beneficial and meaningful source as a main goal. By bringing the modern tools to the reindeer herding, Anicare offer help with the latest technology to this traditional source of livelihood.
The main aim of this bachelor’s thesis was to introduce the Anicare mobile ap-plication that help herders track in real-time and locate whereabouts of the reindeer remotely. Anicare application will go with a health-tag which is a GPS device attached to the earflap of the reindeer. Together, the owner can apply the rescue and treatment for an injured or sick reindeer quickly with the exact GPS location. The Ionic Framework was chosen to develop this hybrid applica-tion. The process consisted of analysing, designing, developing and testing. HTML5, SCSS, Angular, Typescript, PHP and MySQL were manipulated during the design and implementation. A workflow management tool Trello was indis-pensable to be utilized through the creation cycle. The process consisted of three stages: a server written with the Lumen Framework, database backends and a hybrid mobile application development.
The result of this thesis mainly focused on the Android mobile application with a simple and intuitive User Interface, providing accurate information stably. Ex-ploring Anicare application development methods includes the mobile applica-tion architecture overview, concept preparation, development guidelines, test-ing and execution techniques. The described process theory and methodology have theoretical systemic and engineering practice foundations. The full doc-umentation of the application as well as the project implementation were ex-plained entirely in the thesis.
