Software that connects Windows Mobile Devices to PCs (normally local).
ActiveSync runs as a Windows Service. Constantly “listening” for a Mobile Device
connecting through USB connection. Standard software on local workstations that
need to connect to Mobile Devices to transfer data.
Devices that run any form of Windows Mobile use ActiveSync (Newer Trimble, IPAQ, etc)

The Good: GPS Analyst ArcMap/GPS Analyst has worked really well. GPS Analyst Toolbox had to be manually
overwritten with updated version to get AXF Tools properly added in.

DNR Garmin software installed locally User copies the .shp up to Citrix after
download to local PC
No direct interaction between Citrix ArcMap & DNR Garmin extension
Adds complexity to Garmin work flow
The Bad: DNR Garmin
![Page 21: The OR/WA BLM Experiment. Software that connects Windows Mobile Devices to PCs (normally local). ActiveSync runs as a Windows Service. Constantly](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051614/5518c3a3550346b31f8b56b0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The Ugly: Pathfinder Office Antiquated software designed prior to Windows 2000. Registry Key and Permissions Intensive. Issues with Windows Installer for many users. Time Zone has not been reading correctly (C:\
WINDOWS\TIMEZONE.ini).

Data Transfer Utility installed locally User transfers files to local PC Copies them to Citrix
Not an elegant solution Adds complexity

Answer:
![Page 25: The OR/WA BLM Experiment. Software that connects Windows Mobile Devices to PCs (normally local). ActiveSync runs as a Windows Service. Constantly](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051614/5518c3a3550346b31f8b56b0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
ActiveSync and GPS Pathfinder Office must be on same Citrix Box.◦ Data Transfer Utility depends on this.◦ BLM SDE2Mobile Toolbar for GeoBOB requires
this. Bottom Line
◦ Anytime you are using software that uses ActiveSync for data transfer you need that software to run on the same box as the ActiveSync that is connected to your Mobile Device.

No elegant solution to ensure all Mobile GIS apps will run on same box when user needs multiple apps to work together
Pathfinder Office settings need to be standardized for all users
Serving up Mobile Base Data to devices
GPS data file structure on Citrix
