FieldSmart Collect™
All FieldSmart Collect functionality is included in FieldSmart Inspect. By combining forms and text information with geographic data, FieldSmart Collect provides a highly intelligent framework for data collection. Field users capture data by selecting from lists, filling in fields, and placing objects on a map or field sketch. To ensure flexibility, the software interfaces with a variety of devices including GPS.
FieldSmart Collect is also easy to customize. Interface dialogues and symbology are controlled by external tables so the software can be tailored to specific tasks — reflecting an organization’s language and standards.
