Collect field data with the ArcGIS Field Maps mobile app

Learn how to use your smartphone or tablet’s GPS to map important places and boundaries with ArcGIS Field Maps, one of Esri’s newest mobile apps. You can use Field Maps to explore the maps you make in ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Pro, collect and update your own data, and record where you’ve gone, all within a single location-aware application. Learn how to create forms for data collection with a drag and drop user interface. Afterwards, you’ll learn how you can take Field Maps out into the field to map locations using your device and add descriptions and photos to the locations you collect. Field Maps connects to a mobile phone or Wi-Fi network, or works completely offline when there is no cell or Internet service, making it extremely useful for data collection in remote areas. Once you return to network service, your information can be uploaded to ArcGIS Online at the click of a button.
