ABSTRACT
The main goal of this master’s thesis is to present possibilities created by mobile GIS
and its utilization in IACS’s surface controls (Integrated Administration and Control System).
Theoretical part contains detailed description of how mobile GIS can be used with
ArcPad application made by ESRI. The structure and all elements of the mobile GIS are
presented in the thesis. The second chapter describes GPS-Global Positioning System and all
its supporting systems used in mobile GIS. In addition, the thesis contains information about
the structure and usage of IACS.
In the practical part of the thesis an application based on ArcPad software provided by
ESRI Company is developed. The purpose of the application is to automate and simplify
process of handling mobile devices used during surface controls conducted to fulfill IACS
needs. The described application was tested in the field with satisfactory results.
Keywords: ArcPad, IACS, mobile GIS, GPS, autonomous positioning
