4. DakNet is an ad hoc network which uses wireless technology
to provide digital connectivity.
DakNet takes advantages of the existing transportation and
communication infrastructure to provide digital connectivity.
Store and forward concept is used.
It is introduced by First Mile Solutions in 2002.
This idea was introduced in India in 2005.

5. There are three main parts of DakNet
architecture
Mobile access point
 Hub
 Kiosk
5

6. Mobile access point
 Data is transported by means of a mobile access point.
 It automatically and wirelessly collects and delivers
data from/to each kiosk on the network.
 Low cost WIFI radio transceivers automatically
transfer the data stored in the MAP.
 Mobile Access Point is mounted on and powered by a
bus or motorcycle, or even a bicycle

8. HUB
 It is a common connection point for devices in a
network.
 It is used to connect segments of a LAN.
 It contains multiple ports.
 When the vehicle passes near the hub, it
synchronizes all the data from different kiosks
using the internet.

10. KIOSK
 It is a booth providing a computer related service
such as ATM.
 In each village there is kiosk.
 It requires a user interface that can be used
without training.

 Physical transport, in this case a public bus, carries a mobile access point
between village kiosks and a hub with Internet access. Data automatically
uploads and downloads when the bus is in range of a kiosk or the hub.

12.  Store-and-forward concept.
 Government bus is used.
 The bus contains a simple WiFi installation
and server.
 Low cost Wi-Fi radio transceivers transfer
data stored in MAP
12

13.  As the MAP equipped vehicle comes within the range of a village
Wi-Fi enabled kiosk it automatically senses the wireless
connection and uploads and downloads the data.
 As it comes in the range of Internet access points (the hub) it
automatically synchronizes the data from kiosks using the
Internet.
Daknet has following two functions:

 The average cost to make a village kiosk ready is $185.
 Assuming each bus serves 10 villages the average cost for
enabling each village is $243.

15. Daknet is currently in action in many places. They
are
Bhoomi initiative in Karnataka.
 SARI (Sustainable Access for Rural India) project
of Tamilnadu.
 Ratnakiri project in Cambodia.

16. BHOOMI INITIATIVE IN INDIA
 Bhoomi, an initiative to computerize the land
records of villagers is the first e-governance project
in India.
