Working Smarter in the Field with ArcGIS Mobile 10
Track: Mobile GIS
Authors: Nicole Miller, Ashley Hale, Darin Dell

To ensure accessibility for individuals with disabilities along transportation networks, JMT Technology Group developed ADAMobile, a mobile solution that provides agencies such as the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) with the ability to inventory pedestrian facilities based on the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Standards for Accessible Design. Built on Esri ArcGIS Mobile 10 technology, ADAMobile allows users to collect data in the field and provide real-time updates to the office.

The deployment of the ADA solution included establishing a system infrastructure, building an ADA database, and configuring data entry forms. JMT also developed a web application known as the ADADashboard, allowing managers to monitor and report on the ADA compliance program. The map view provides visualization of compliant and non-compliant features, and the reporting engine allows users to compare and evaluate ADA compliance to make informed decisions for improvements.
