  • Crash

    Crash on start up. iPhone 3gs v3.1.2.
  • Amazing

    Don't have any crashing issues and uploading data is great. This is really helpful for getting oriented in the field. It would be awesome though if you could append a point with a georeferenced photo.

    Great app!
  • Editing

    Cool app. I do a lot of GIS workaday this is a unique way of looking at maps while not in a stationary location. I would like to see the cross hairs when editing to be darkened and the accuracy be improved. Still getting used to it and am not sure how useful it will end up being.
  • Customer service lacking!!

    I also am a Land Surveyor, and had high hopes, but I coughed up $30.00 for this and really wish it would work. I am able to admit I maybe doing something wrong, but can get no response from the company to help me figure it out. VERY POOR CUSTOMER SUPPORT!!! Very sad, this LOOKS like the best GIS app out there. PLEASE get your customer support on the ball!

  • Can't upload

    I haven't been able to upload anything yet, connection keeps timing out, have to restart everything but it still doesn't work!
  • Great great app

    Thanks. Looking fwd to updates. Needs cable transfer of files or dropbox support.
  • A work in progress that is well worth the money

    For anyone who has GIS data they would like to display on an iphone this is the app. Their data upload is very slick. Initially I had difficulty getting the projection that we use at work to execute, but the support was very responsive and I was able to get it going in short order. For those who use WGS84, you will have no difficulties. Since I bought it there have been several good updates and the developers seem to be actively upgrading the app. Hopefully they will continue to add more options for symbology and labeling. Some of the earlier comments indicate difficulty with exported shapefiles and the like. I too ran into a problem with one shapefile, but I sent it to the developer and they found the problem and updated the app. (FYI: I work on a water distribution system and the program easily handled 14 different point and line shapefile sets, each with 1,000 to 6,000 features (I did use zoom levels to help with performance.))

  • Finally GIS on the iPhone

    Just bought this app a couple days ago. I've imported a few shapefiles from work and they all have worked so far. I have a few suggestions.

    Work on symbology for multiple categories in each shapefiles. Allowing imports of layers would help with this.

    A more intuitive table of contents for layer adjustment, toggling and symbolism would be great.

    Create a toolbar for Id, measure, area, and selection. An option for attribute selection and export of selection as shp would be ideal.

    A toolbar with some simple analysis tools such as buffer, union, and intersect would make this a more practical program.

    Also, last but not least an editor feature that allows for polygon and line editing and feature creation as well as attrribute field editing would be awesome.

    This is a lot to ask for in a handheld GIS app, but I am looking forward to new updates. So far I'm quite impressed with this. You can't beat it for $20!!

  • Good basic GIS viewer

    Waited until ver 2.1. Only issue I have is loading shp files with multi-part polygons (multiple polygons with a single attribute record). This is a typical issue when using Google Maps.

    Like the app. Keep adding more features...
