Collector for ArcGIS
• COTS Mobile app for field workflows
• Collect and update data
- Using your location or the map
- Fill out forms
- Capture attachments (pictures, videos)
• Types of use
- Collect asset locations and status
- Ground-truth GIS data
- Make observations/conduct surveys
- Replace paper-based workflows
![Page 13: Collector for ArcGIS: An Overview - Esriproceedings.esri.com/library/userconf/fed15/papers/fed_06.pdf · Collector for ArcGIS: An Overview Carrie Tropasso –GIS Technical Lead, PA](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013007/5bb9cdc209d3f2323f8bf373/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
What can you do?
• Open maps shared to you for data collection
• Collect and update features
• Copy features to save time
• Measure lengths and area
• Get directions
• Switch between basemaps
• Search features and places
• Record where you went
![Page 14: Collector for ArcGIS: An Overview - Esriproceedings.esri.com/library/userconf/fed15/papers/fed_06.pdf · Collector for ArcGIS: An Overview Carrie Tropasso –GIS Technical Lead, PA](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013007/5bb9cdc209d3f2323f8bf373/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Collector uses Web Maps
• Maps should include:

![Page 15: Collector for ArcGIS: An Overview - Esriproceedings.esri.com/library/userconf/fed15/papers/fed_06.pdf · Collector for ArcGIS: An Overview Carrie Tropasso –GIS Technical Lead, PA](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013007/5bb9cdc209d3f2323f8bf373/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Making the map
Add your layers to
your map Configure the map:
forms, symbology, tools Share to your field users
• Choose symbology for the end user
• Leverage domains, subtypes, default values, scale ranges etc…
• Set viewable and editable fields
• Turn off unnecessary tools (measure, basemap etc…)
• Side load basemaps to device to save time
