  1. “Taking it to the Streets”With Mobile GIS Applications Bryson Koziell, GISPCDM UIM Asset Management Conference

  2. Taking it to the Streets… Options for getting GIS and related data into the field • ArcPad • ArcPublisher/Reader • ArcEngine • New Technologies

  3. 1 - ArcPad… Light and Easy • Simple to Use • Can Run on PDA, GPS, PCs, etc. • Pretty Easy to Set Up and Customizable • Inexpensive • Older Technology • Starting to See Less and Less of ArcPad

  4. ArcMap’s ArcPad Toolbar… Clip DataCheck OutEditCheck InSynchronize

  5. ArcPad’s Limitations • Older Technology • Stores GIS data in older file format • Limited set of tools • Starting to See Less and Less of ArcPad

  6. 2 - ArcReader… Heavy and Free • Create with ArcPublisher Extension ($2,000) • Customize through the “ArcReader Control” • Designed for PC/Tablet Use • Simple to Create Basic Applications • Free Deployment

  7. Out of the Box ArcReader….

  8. Customized ArcReader…

  9. 3 – ArcEngine… Full GIS “in the Field” • Custom Development Environment • Query, Edit, Redline, GPS, Etc. Capabilities • Have to Develop Your Application • Great for Custom Field Development • Needs ArcGIS Engine Runtime License ($500) • Cost-Efficient Way to Deploy High-End GIS

  10. CDM Mobile Mapper • Built with ArcObjects • Developed to provide full GIS functionality in the field. • Designed for use on tablet pc or field computer • User friendly interface • Highly flexible

  11. CDM Mobile Mapper-Functionality • Standard GIS Functionality (Pan, Zoom, Measure, Identify)

  12. CDM Mobile Mapper-Functionality • Enhanced Address and Customer searches

  13. CDM Mobile Mapper-Functionality • Quick Maps – Automatically toggle on relevant layers Parcel map Base Map Ortho Map Water Distribution Topo Map Wastewater Map

  14. CDM Mobile Mapper-Functionality • Hyperlinking – Access to scanned documents

  15. CDM Mobile Mapper-Functionality • Valve Isolation

  16. CDM Mobile Mapper-Functionality • Network Tracing – Upstream/Downstream Pipe Tracing

  17. CDM Mobile Mapper-Functionality • Redlining

  18. CDM Mobile Mapper-Functionality • Mobile Inspector – Create, edit, and view inspection information for a variety of assets

  19. 4 – Crazy New Technologies • Pen Computing with Adapx Pen • Print Maps in the Office • Give Maps to Field Crews • Field Crews Use “Magic Pen” to Edit Maps • Pen is Docked in Office andEdits Show in GIS • People “Freak Out” WhenThey See This

  20. Final Thoughts… • ArcPad and ArcReader Still Have Their Place • ArcPad May Eventually be Replaced by ArcGIS Mobile • ArcEngine is a Good, Solid Environment for Field Deployment • CDM has customized ArcEngine application developed • ArcGIS Mobile is the Future but is New and Fairly Expensive • Look at Other Technologies like the “Magic Pen”
