CES Mobile GIS — Professional Field Data Collection & Site Verification
Transform your field workflows with CES Mobile GIS, the professional-grade mapping and data collection app designed for site verification teams, GIS specialists, and field engineers. Work online or offline with powerful tools to capture, edit, and manage spatial data wherever your projects take you.
Key Features:
Interactive Map Visualization
• High-performance vector maps with multiple basemap styles (Google Roads, Satellite, Hybrid, Terrain, Light, Dark)
• API-driven data themes with status-based symbology and layer legends
• Dynamic layer rendering with per-layer and sub-type visibility controls
• Topography overlays with viewport-optimized rendering
• Map tilt, compass reset, and optional 3D buildings when pitched
• GPS tracking with one-tap centering on your location
Search & Navigation
• Search project features by attribute values
• Geocode addresses and places when online
• Fly to search results and selected features on the map
• Open external maps apps for turn-by-turn directions to a feature
Feature Creation & Editing
• Create new Point, Line, and Polygon features directly on the map
• Drop a point at your current GPS location on a chosen layer
• Edit existing geometries with intuitive vertex handles
• Smart snapping to nearby features for precise placement
• Midpoint insertion for adding vertices to lines and polygons
• Edit feature attributes when you have permission
Photo Documentation
