  1. Using ArcPad in the Field Juan Luera

  2. Agenda • Collection Methods • Field Editing Using ArcPad in the Field

  3. Collection Methods Using ArcPad in the Field

  4. Collection Methods – Without GPS • Data validation • relative position • Attribute information • Reliant on background reference data • Suited when • need low level control of data Using ArcPad in the Field

  5. Collection Methods – With GPS • GPS enabled device • USB GPS • Bluetooth GPS • Windows Location • Preferences in ArcPad • Protocol • Port • Baud rate • “Find GPS” tool Using ArcPad in the Field

  6. Collection Methods – GPS Fundamentals • Three Segments of GPS • Space (Appox. 24 SV’s Orbiting every 12 hrs) • Control (Earth Based Master and Sub-Control) • User (Growing Rapidly) • GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, GALIELO) • Sources of Error • Obstructions • Multipath • Post processing or real time GPS Using ArcPad in the Field

  7. Collection Methods – Laser Rangefinder • Ideal when: • Target inaccessible • Not possible to get GPS signal or GPS positional accuracy • Create 1 and 2 point offsets • Linear and radial traverses • LaserGIS for ArcPad from Laser Technology, Inc. Using ArcPad in the Field

  8. Collection Methods – Cameras Using ArcPad in the Field

  9. Field Editing Using ArcPad in the Field

  10. Field Editing – GPS feature collection • Capture point /vertex • Stream GPS vertices • Move point to GPS position • Collect GPS TrackLog • Log output from GPS Receiver Using ArcPad in the Field

  11. Field Editing – Use the Quick Capture tool • Dynamically generated based on editable layers • Create new features with one click • Aware of related tables Using ArcPad in the Field

  12. Field Editing – Quick Projects • QuickProjects • Creates ready-to-use data capture project • Simple, efficient method for capturing data into new layers • Templates • Default template • Points.shp • Lines.shp • Polygons.shp • Custom template Using ArcPad in the Field

  13. Field Editing – Geometry Edits • Extend a line • Add or delete vertices • Move a vertex Using ArcPad in the Field

  14. Field Editing – Updating Attributes • Attribute tables • Related tables Using ArcPad in the Field

  15. Field Editing - Demo Using ArcPad in the Field
