Real-time GIS mapping utilizes GPS-enabled mobile devices to map points of interest and streamline data collection through tools like Live Connect and Field Master. Live Connect allows for customizable surveys and immediate data submissions, including photographs, while Field Master enables easy access to survey data based on GPS location. This technology enhances auditing processes and enables detailed field data management, making mapping more efficient and cost-effective.

1. Real Time GIS Mapping with Live Connect
Real-time mapping is the process of mapping points of interests (POI's), through using GPS capable mobile
devices that connect via the internet.
Business Mapper uses these technologies to make mapping cheaper and fast.
Live Connect
Based on mobile phones with a GPS chip and a Camera, live connect is able to customize surveys and send data
in real time. The surveys can then be consumed by a Business Mapper client or Field Master for field
supervisors.
Live Connect is also capable of sending Photos associated with a Survey. This tool is great for audit functions
and for detailed field data such as customer profiles.
Field Master
Ideally used on a tablet, Field Master is able to download all survey data submitted by Live Connect. Users can
choose to download data based on current GPS position, or a map pinned location.
Some applications for Field Master involve downloading customer information or constituent data, based on a
person current location.
