Mobile iOS and Android App for Location SelectionNovember 25th, 2013 by Matt Sheehan
Our development team really like the GeoEnrichment service from Esri. We’ve been working with this service for some time and see some key commercial areas of application. In a previous blog we mentioned a mobile app we were building as a demo. Our focus was using GIS on your mobile for location selection. The development effort was largely driven by requests we have received from a number of retail organizations looking to improve how they assess potential locations for new stores. Moving forward we see this as an important area in our commercial GIS development division. Mobile iOS and Android App for Location SelectionAfter the success of the demo, we have now released the Mobile ‘Demographics for Site Selection’ App as a product. Built for both iPads and Android tablets, the app is available via Esri’s ArcGIS MarketPlace: Now executives can generate dynamically demographic information about the area surrounding a potential new site, while in the field. The app provides a snapshot of the socioeconomics of the area, and can search by radius, custom polygon or linear reference. Need a report of this generated data? The mobile app provides a reporting tool, which generates a Pdf of the data. Contact us for more information Categories: ArcGIS Online, Mobile ArcGIS, Mobile GIS, Web and mobile GIS |
