What's New in CES Mobile GIS
1.1.8
September 17, 2026
CES Mobile GIS — what's new (since 1.1.5, early September) Stock is now a working field module, My Work no longer chokes on large projects, and map create/edit/sync is much more reliable. Shipping version on main is 1.1.7. STOCK Bootstock is live for the signed-in user's own van stock (online-only). Orders replace single-item requests: several lines, quantities, urgency, needed-by, and a note. The source can accept or reject per line, accept all remaining lines, or reject the whole order. You can cancel an order you raised before it starts fulfilling. Status rolls up on the server. Transfers: jump straight in from Bootstock / Requests / Sent. Incoming transfers can be rejected outright. Blind Reading variance can be resolved in-app. Split now actually follows through into transfer or consumption. Daily work: cancel an open Daily Bootstock Count before submit; reverse a posted Log Usage; field-verify a drum/batch by marker; drum register on your Bootstock; drill-down item detail instead of a flat list. "On hand" ignores zero-qty rows. Find stock: interactive Nearby Locations with org-wide map pins; Recent Activity and Bootstock History filter by date and group by day. Not in this drop: warehouse release, stockpile take, GRN check-in, managed-location switching, photo evidence on Declare/Count/GRN. MY WORK On large projects (e.g. Philippi North, ~12.5k items) the list used to fire hundreds of extra API calls after it arrived. The list now uses server-resolved fields: real boundary names, canonical layer names for Locate, photo counts, and assignee labels. Pick-lists load when a field is opened and cache on the device. Non-managers only see their own tasks; managers see the full set with assignee labels. Repeat opens are much cheaper. Offline My Work and locate gaps are closed. Android back-gesture on that screen is handled. MAP, CREATE, EDIT, SYNC Create: points, lines, and polygons place reliably. "Done" on a new feature only unlocks when required fields are filled. Empty values no longer look like real data; required fields stay editable at low zoom. Sync: each new feature gets one global_id (no duplicate CREATE on retry). A synced edit no longer reuses a stale baseline. Incomplete new features no longer loop forever. Photos, comments, and attribute updates auto-sync immediately when auto-sync is on. Reconnect no longer re-runs full DB bootstrap. Selection/UI: stale POI selection after sync is gone. Conflict resolve buttons stay pinned. Options menu stays above My Changes. Offline pack: dropped layers during conversion are caught; UI no longer freezes; edits that race a download are reconciled; "Partially ready" no longer lies. The offline tile sync dot is scoped to the changed area and current viewport. Context layers: submarine cables and OSM datacentres ship bundled in the topography tab and work offline. Auth: session poll uses the real /auth/session-info endpoint.
