Georganico: aplicación móvil para la localización de mercados orgánicos en la ciudad de Bogotá

Abstract

The promotion of the organic food industry represents a response to the environmental and health needs of the city of Bogotá. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) establishes that certified organic products are produced, stored, processed, handled and marketed in accordance with the rules of good agricultural practices and have fewer pesticides and heavy metals (FAO , 2020). The sale and consumption of organic products has a wide projection among the most important trends in the Bogota capital, not only by people who want to take care of the environment, but by others who seek to get away from chemicals, preservatives or industrialized products. The objective of this work is to develop an application for mobile devices –GEORGANICO– that indicates the places where it is possible to purchase these products in the city of Bogotá, for this purpose the following research question arises: Is it possible to develop a mobile application that shows the location and information of organic markets in the city of Bogotá ?. This is why a mobile application for Android is implemented where the organic markets of the city of Bogotá are located and how to get there, fulfilling the functional and non-functional requirements proposed for their development.
