Connected Mobile GIS Solutions

Universal access to the Web and real-time synchronization with the enterprise have led to the widespread adoption of wireless technologies. The ability to operate in either a connected or a disconnected environment has become critical to the success of mobile GIS field activities. This is a major advantage for mobile workers as they can access large amounts of data directly from the Web or from their back-end enterprise systems. Mobile enterprise GIS deployments can leverage this wireless technology to access large quantities of GIS data in a field environment and cache it locally so users can perform their business functions without needing to return to the office.
