Mobile GIS for surveyors and GIS professionals working for cadastral and mapping agencies
Hotz, Johannes
This paper highlights the significance of GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) and other sensors (such as TPS (Total Stations), Level, Laser Distancemeter, ) integration within a mobile GIS environment. It provides insight and direction of Leica MobileMatriX as the platform for the integration of surveying in a mobile GIS. Methods, sensors, and graphical representations of measurements and surveyed features can be combined in realtime to allow the most beneficial results. The trends of mobile field systems are dominated by: − Wireless technology between sensor and TabletPC, − Move to data acquisition, go away from simply collect X, Y, Z − Field to Finish solution − Quality and Completeness control in the field − Seamless dataflow between office - field - office − No redundancies in data and workflows − With the approach of providing the entire geodatabase in the field, field crews can react on changing conditions − All geographic truth in any map or GIS can be traced to a surveying and mapping process. − For survey crews the GIS is a silentt partner no GIS knowledge is required
