GISRoam V2.1: iPad/iPhone alternative to ArcPad

Cogent3D, Inc., announces the iTunes App store release of GISRoam, Version 2.1. V2.1 brings mobile iOS GIS users forms capability, graphical form builder, and many easy-to-use advanced collection and display capabilities.

GISRoam is an easy to use but powerful mobile GIS app that enables Shapefile viewing, editing, colorization, and collection over user loaded imagery, maps, and elevation data.

    * User defined forms for data collection and data display. Including user pre-defined attribute table values in text/numbers/pictures/weblinks.
    * Drag-n-drop graphical tool to design and preview the user data forms
    * Support for transparent fill on polygons

    * Dataconnect supports both PC and Mac operating systems
    * GISRoam has an application store with FREE sample data to explore the full capabilities of GISRoam.
