Chapter 4 Notes:
- Mobile GIS is becoming the pervasive client for Web GIS
- Mobile apps can be developed in browser, native, and hybrid-based approaches
- ArcGIS provides a suite of mobile apps, including ArcGIS Survey123 and Field Maps
- Survey123 is form centric and requires a form that can created using Survey123 Connect or web designer
- Field maps is map centric for viewing maps, data collection, tacking, and coordination. For data collection, it requires an editable feature in a web map
- Mobile GIS is the foundation of many apps and frontiers, including location-based services, volunteered geographic information, virtual reality, and augmented reality
Creating apps based on these sections would be primarily used in the field. I am not really sure what type of app I would develop. It would have to be something involving landmarks in my surroundings so I was thinking possibly an app for hiking or camping trails to keep track of where you are by identifying landmarks on the trail to avoid getting lost or just learning in general but I assume there is something already like that out there.
