This document discusses the development of a participatory animal health surveillance system in Chiang Mai, Thailand. The system aims to improve surveillance by engaging more people, including farmers, villagers, and consumers. It plans to use smartphones and voice calls to collect location data on farms, markets, slaughterhouses, and reports on abnormal animal situations or product issues. The collected data will be visualized on a map. The system also seeks to better register all animal farms and provide online education about animal health and food safety. An initial demonstration of the solution design was presented.
