Abstract

The overall aim of Phase 1 within the RICHFIELDS project is to design a Research Infrastructure (RI) for the collection, integration, processing and sharing of consumergenerated data as related to food intake activities and thereby including food behaviour and lifestyle determinants. The Deliverables 5.1, 6.1 and 7.1 share a common framework and tool for the data collection method, where the labels for scientific data collected in the inventory are specific for the domains purchase (D5.1), preparation (D6.1) and consumption (D7.1). 5.1 made an inventory of available mobile applications (apps) for consumergenerated purchase data based on the quality framework developed in task 5.3. The inventory provides a list of available consumer purchase apps with data collection methods that generate data on consumer food intake activities in relation to key questions relating to food purchase behaviour (i.e., What/Who/Why/How/Where). The inventory was made in Mobile application stores; ITunes and Google Play, and by using search engines Google and fnd.io. In addition, apps for inclusion were found in reference lists of searched articles, links found on the internet, etc. Fifty-four mobile applications were identified for inclusion into the RICHFIELDS Inventory Management System (RIMS), an online management system created in response to Task 5.1, 6.1 and 7.1. These apps were assessed in terms of their descriptive, scientific, legal and technical characteristics. This report contains an outline of the methodology used for the identification of the apps and a discussion of the application of the quality criteria. Aggregations, analyses and evaluations of the collected information related to the quality criteria developed in Deliverable 5.3 will be part of Deliverable 5.4 and 5.5.
