FieldNote App1.15.2 - App Store

FieldNote is a highly versatile and easily configurable field data collection app. It was developed to help you efficiently capture and analyze data, create and manage workflows, track project progress, monitor costs and more. Geographically distributed field personnel can collect and share critical information instantaneously regardless of their location with the touch of a button. Clients are able to make system configuration changes themselves, eliminating the need for lengthy change order processes or endless hours on the phone with software developers. With FieldNote, there is nothing standing between you and your data!

Key Features:
- Simple yet functional design requires no GIS experience to use
- Versatile interface capable of collecting any type of data- regardless of industry
- Multiple workspaces allow data collection/analysis to be segregated however you wish
- Large library of color coded icons gives field users quick access to information on-the-go
- Crew composition and equipment usage automatically tracked and rolled into weekly timesheets
- Integrates with a variety of GIS formats using ESRI basemaps and overlays
- Geospatial features can be linked together to display relationships between data points
- Able to accommodate any type of workflow
- Wireless data syncing
- Custom reports and dashboards are run on command to ensure you view the most up-to-date and relevant analytics

Notes:
- Server configuration is required for app usage.
- To access app features, your employer/organization must be an existing client of Terra Spectrum Technologies

Disclaimers:
- Mapping API provided by Esri ArcGIS Runtime SDK for iOS
- FieldNote is designed and built natively for iPad
- Use of the FieldNote app requires data usage, subject to additional charges. Data charges will depend on your mobile service provider and actual usage patterns
- FieldNote collects and transmits geolocation information to servers at Terra Spectrum. Map points are determined by the ArcGIS runtime platform. If permission is granted, geolocation can be determined using Core Location.
- All data collected by the client company’s implementation of FieldNote is the property of the client and may be used and shared at the client’s discretion. Terra Spectrum Technologies is not responsible for information the client company chooses to share.
- When using Core Location, geolocation accuracy depends on physical location, signal strength, and mobile service provider. Connecting a Bluetooth GPS device to the iPad will improve Core Location accuracy.
