Mobile Data Collection vs FieldMap Pro

GIS Cloud Mobile Data Collection is a solution for recording and updating data in the field with mobile devices in real time, also allowing instant data access from the office. Digitize your workflow and eliminate errors and time-consuming paperwork! The mobile app enables you to accurately record data, online or offline, by filling in digital custom survey forms. You can create an unlimited number of your own unique forms in the user-friendly form builder, in the connected web app (Mobile Data Collection Portal). Continue working on your data, edit, share, and collaborate through GIS Cloud powerful web Map Editor app. Find everything you need for your workflow in one platform, no need for integrations. Collect points, lines, or polygons! Use GPS to capture data on the go, or switch to manual and use pinpoint and drawing tools for even better precision. Form fields are fully customizable and you can choose from text fields, selects lists, radio buttons, checkboxes, electronic signature, autofill, barcode, photo and audio, hidden fields, and much more. To control data accuracy and eliminate errors, make your form fields required, conditional (dependent on other form fields or data input), or persistent. Manage your field staff and share projects with custom forms to field workers by assigning them the collect and update permissions, and they can instantly start collecting data in the field. Simply sign into your GIS Cloud account (or sign up for free) and send collected data directly to your GIS Cloud app in the cloud. Data is immediately represented on a map, just click on any map feature to access collected data. Generate reports from the web app. Access data through GIS Cloud Map Editor, where you can further edit and style your data, overlay with additional data layers analyze data, share data with colleagues with different permissions to collaborate on projects. You can also export data and much more. Collect field data and conduct field surveys faster and easier than ever before. Start creating forms in the MDC Portal web app on https://giscloud.com and have your team out and about in a quarter of an hour! All you need in the field: - Offline data capture - Offline maps - Points, Lines, and Polygons geometry support - Media (photos & audio) enriched location information - QR code and barcode support - Electronic signature - Dropdowns, lists, input boxes, and comments based on custom forms - Review data attributes directly in the app - Search through data on the map - Control different layers in the map - Edit existing data - Listen to audio and view images - Real-time GPS location - View and explore maps in the field Prepare and analyze in the office: - Cloud-based web apps - Custom forms designer - Rich GIS symbology and visualization - Data editing and exporting - One-click map and data sharing - Real-time collaboration - Map publishing - Spatial Queries & Analysis - Account administration Note! This app will use GPS in the background to give you the most accurate and current location. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

FieldMap is a mobile mapping tool that enables you to bring your proprietary GIS (ArcMap, ArcGIS Pro, or GeoMedia) map into the field for use in offline or connected mode by field tech workers. Field tech workers can still work effectively where the wireless network is unreliable or non-existent. The dynamically rendered and labeled map increases situational awareness and provides access to custom, concise, sophisticated forms that integrate GIS-related info and external work-related asset management info for data collection. FieldMap provides all the functionality needed in the field: - Offline, vector, WYSIWYG display of your GIS map that has been published from your GIS and downloaded to your device. - Fully, dynamically labeled map according to your configuration in GIS for rapid map comprehension. - Layer Control for turning layers on and off. - Search for assets via attribute text or location-based augmented reality. - Review asset attributes by tapping the asset on the map. - Bring up a published asset form by tapping on the asset for easy data collection. - Capture new assets in the field by tapping on the screen and/or using the on-board or external GPS receiver and also associate photos with the asset. - Real time GPS location displayed on the map - Distance and Area Measurement tools - Overlay your GIS map on Apple Maps imagery or proprietary offline imagery (JP2 or ECW files). - Mark-up map with redlines, share them with other FieldMap users, and email map image to back-office - Download, display, and mark-up documents such as manuals, building plans, etc and share mark-up with other FieldMap users. In the office, an organization can configure: - User accounts for FieldMap users via a MapText web portal called FieldBox. - Map publishing for use in the field - Label placement rules with scale ranges - Attributes for review in the field - Search filters for the various layers - Synchronization of field edits back into GIS
