Education GIS solutions. It will assist organizations in identifying their mobile technology needs and determine the mobile GIS solution that best meets those needs. The presenter examines each solution’s unique purpose, use cases, and deployment options. Maximizing GPS Accuracy in GIS Data Collection—The application of GPS in civilian markets has evolved from high-value surveying and timing industries, where accurate location was critical, to more recent widespread adoption in location-aware applications on consumer handsets. GPS plays a critical role in enterprise field service and work automation systems where mobile GIS tools leverage GPS to help workers locate themselves, navi- gate to their work, and accurately collect new geographic information. This presentation examines techniques for maximizing accuracy of GPS in mobile GIS data collection. For more information and to register for these and other courses, visit www.esri.com/ training.
