Mergin Maps: QGIS in pocket

QGIS field data collection app

Published by: LUTRA CONSULTING

Description

Simplify your field survey by capturing GPS field data on your mobile or tablet. Create mobile forms with the fields you require and invite your survey teams to complete them on their phones or tablets. Captured data, along with their location can be surveyed offline, then synced back to the QGIS in seconds.
Enter your data once, with ease, in the field. Mergin Maps aims to remove the pain of transcribing paper field notes, manually georeferencing photos and transcribing GPS coordinates.
The data you capture in the field survey is shown on a map and can be exported to a wide variety of formats including CSV, Microsoft Excel, ESRI Shapefile, Mapinfo, GeoPackage, PostGIS, AutoCAD DXF, KML and many more.
Mergin Maps Input is an extension of the free and open source GIS software QGIS. It allows you to open, interrogate and edit your QGIS projects on your mobile. Map layers look the same as in QGIS desktop and you can sync your data back and forward with QGIS desktop using the Mergin Maps QGIS plugin.
Mergin Maps supports offline field data capture and can be configured to use either offline or web-based background maps and contextual layers.
Perks of the Mergin Maps sync system:
- No need for cables to get your data on/off your device
- Share projects with others for collaborative working
- Safely work together on the same datasets, even offline
- Updates from different surveyors are intelligently merged
- Push data back from the field in real time
- Version history and cloud-based backup
- Fine-grained access control
- Sync with your PostGIS datasets
Supported field types for forms are:
- Text (single or multi-line)
- Numeric (plain, with +/- buttons or with slider)
- Date / time (with calendar picker)
- Photo
- Checkbox (yes/no values)
- Drop-down with predefined values
- Drop-down with values from another table
Forms can even be configured to perform data validation using custom rules.
Works with device internal GPS receiver and third-party Bluetooth GPS receivers.

United Kingdom

Not a review but a request for help!!!! This app looks exactly what I need for work for plotting a variety of positions, however through the I store app or on line the app only sais “open”, I cannot find anyway to down load it. Am I missing something?? Thanks

Five star

Brilliant little app for field surveys. Obviously there’s always more things that could be added but it’s under active development so can’t wait to see what new features arrive. Thank you Lutra Consulting!

Brilliant for soil sampling

This app has made my job so much easier and quicker! We use input for logging soil sample locations and observations in field. It works and is brilliant. So simple to use and has revolutionised field work!

Does exactly what you expect

Tarek Ball on

I have been using Input for surveying trees for the last few months now and it really is a lifesaver. The UI is simple and easy to understand and the cloud service offered, Mergin, works really very well. Once you’ve set up a project inside QGIS and any forms you wish to be filled out you can just plot items to you hearts content. Very impressed. The only improvement I could see atm would be to include a zoom slider on screen so that you can zoom in and put using a stylus. Other than that A++ 👌🏻

Great app - but no zoom controls

Ozlo24 on

United Kingdom

We have started to use this app for our surveying work on the UK uplands. The app is great - simple to use. The synchronisation with Mergin and QGIS projects has saved us a lot of time! One feature it is missing though is a dedicated zoom in and out control. It is possible to pinch to zoom, but we often need to wear gloves when surveying in the winter and having buttons for zoom controls would help massively. Also, the option to turn layer visibility on and off would be a useful addition.

Nice product, straightforward set up and good support.
