Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

FieldTask is the Smap Android client. When used with the Smap Server it becomes a powerful tool for collecting data, guiding the completion of tasks and providing information back to the user. The default configuration includes a user id and password to connect to a demo server. You can try it out by installing and then press the refresh button. This will download the forms on that server to fieldTask. To set up your own server account goto https://sg.smap.com.au and click register. You will also find documentation on that web site. If you have any issues you can email support at [email protected] FieldTask uses foreground services for data sync, GPS trail recording, and audio capture during active field sessions. Each service is user-initiated and displays a persistent notification.
