Authors: Chalermpon Lertsakdadet

Since the iPhone, applications on mobile devices have never been the same. Many mobile GIS applications have been developed and used in GIS industries; banking, surveying, logistics, and agriculture. Agri-Empire, Southern California's premier potato grower, packer, and shipper, was interested in possessing a mobile application that would allow users to visualize crop information over the years and to collect and update data when in the field. The purpose of this project was to create a cross-platform mobile GIS web application that enables users to visualize crop data and perform online data editing. The application, built with ArcGIS API for JavaScript and Dojo Mobile, was designed specifically for iOS and Android tablets. This project resulted in an effective visualization and data management application, which can be accessed anywhere.
