Getting to Know Mobile GIS Provides Professionals and Students with Comprehensive Solution-Building Guide
Phrases like“mobile first" and the “post-PC era” aren’t just buzzwords; they represent today’s reality.

- Online and offline spatial data visualization
- Data collection

Getting to Know Mobile GIS is a comprehensive resource covering the Esri suite of ArcGIS mobile technologies, including native-based apps such as ArcGIS Survey123, ArcGIS Field Maps, ArcGIS QuickCapture, and browser-based apps such as ArcGIS Dashboards and ArcGIS Experience Builder. Readers can also acquire advanced skills to extend Mobile GIS using ArcGIS Arcade, webhooks, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and the ArcGIS Maps SDKs. The book explores popular application types and frontiers, encompassing location-based services, volunteered geographic information (VGI), 3D mapping, virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR).
Dr. Pinde Fu is also the author of Getting to Know Web GIS (Esri Press, 2022) and the lead author of Web GIS: Principles and Applications (Esri Press, 2010).
