Data Collection/Mapping Software

Most pen-based applications run under a multi-tasking environment such as Microsoft Windows (pen-based

computers) or Windows CE (hand-held computers). Some also offer a version for MS-DOS that will run on

DOS-based data recorders or hand-held computers.

Most applications offer a visual map display with either manual or automatic panning and zooming that shows

data as it is collected. Loading background images onto the map screen such as digital orthographic

quadrangles (DOQ) or scanned topographic maps is also possible with several of the applications. Many also

offer interfaces to an array of input devices other than just GPS receivers such as laser range finders, total

stations, digital cameras and bar-code readers. (See Figure 1 on page 16).

Most software listed in the table on page 43 offers the user the ability to customize it to their particular data

collection application. Data dictionaries or database forms can be constructed with GUI (Graphical User

Interface) features such as pull down lists and option or radio buttons that allow users to rapidly select

attributes using a pen or stylus on a touch-sensitive screen (see section on pen-based computers on

page 31).

Real-time mapping and data capture software is currently under field evaluation by SDTDC. Not all features

of this type of software have been determined at the time of printing this guide pending results of the field

evaluation. Those interested are asked to check the SDTDC FSWeb site for the most current information and

test results.
