GeoField - Mobile data capture software

Automating Mobile Mapping and Data Management

Sigma Seven’s field mapping and data management solution, GeoField, provides mobile workforces with a complete set of mapping, operational and infrastructure data to enable them to perform accurate and effective field work. GeoField is a mobile solution which gives access to critical data at the point of action, in both disconnected and connected wireless environments.

By automating your map centric business processes with GeoField, you can dramatically improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your field workers. You will eliminate paper trails and improve data quality and customer service by giving your front line staff electronic tools to support their day to day activities.

GeoField is ideally suited to data capture using tablet field computers - these ruggedised hardware we can advise on and supply.

GeoField applications integrate with your work management and other key back office information systems, giving your field staff access to the most up to date information. Equally importantly, GeoField works within a managed mobile systems framework ensuring a secure and controlled field infrastructure.

GeoField can be deployed in many common activities in the Utility and Network Asset Management sectors, such as network records mapping, asset inspection, damage assessment, asset tagging, network planning and design, quotations, construction, vegetation and environmental management.
