AUTO FIELD MAPPING

Field observations die in notebooks. Photos, GPS points, contacts and structures take weeks to digitise, if they get digitised at all, so the central project workspace never fully reflects what mappers actually saw.

Business Question

"We mapped that ridge in July. Why isn't it in the model in September?"

What SPoG Does

  • Digitises observations, photos, GPS points, structures, contacts and occurrences as they are captured.
  • Standardises mapping observations into structured, usable map layers.
  • Updates the central project workspace directly from the field.
