Mobiles GIS auf Basis von Android-Tablet-PC für INSPIRE-, Copernicus- und InVeKoS-Daten

As part of the research project «Prototypic development of a mobile GIS-application in the context of INSPIRE, Copernicus and IACS» (= Integrated Administration and Control System; equal to InVeKoS in Germany) concrete added values achieved by INSPIRE data were investigated for mobile experts. The outcomes were proved during a field trial by a mobile system (Client). The main object of this research project is the development of an intuitive and easy-to-learn GUI (= Graphical User Interface) taking account displays of various sizes (e.g., Smartphones or Tablets). The prototypic implementation of the mobile application is based on an Android operating system. The benefits of EU-wide spatial data infrastructures (SDI) were established by means of different use cases in the fields of land consolidation, cadaster and land use. The capability of the prototype was evaluated in the presence of governmental representatives within a field trial in the region of Lake Constance in September 2012.
