Amazing app!
Full of bugs!
First of all, the App offers good prerequisite to collect field data with offline maps and many GIS related features. But it is extremely unstable! Im not able to work more than five minutes without a collapse of the App. It happens in any occasion, and is highly annoying because often data gets lost! The App-Support is no help, here is a 4-week-old reaction of the Developer Team: “Unfortunately, it will take some time to correct these issues.” So there is no prospect of an end, and it sounds like a bad joke for a 100€ App! Honestly this is the most labile App ive ever loaded in the App-Store. Keep your hands off!
Very Disappointing given price and potential
I bought GIS Kit approx. 13 months ago and there hasnt been a single substantive update since. The only updates have been bug fixes and cosmetic tweaks and that is extremely disappointing given that I paid the hefty price tag more for the apps considerable potential then for its current set of features. One of the most perplexing things is that Garafka makes a product called GPS Kit, as opposed to GIS Kit, and it has better capabilities (e.g., track logs). I have GIS Kit on both my iphone and my ipad and havent used it all field season despite the fact that it burns my #$@#$ that I paid that much for an app. I contacted the developers on multiple occasions to ask about potential features and they never ever had anything intelligible to say. Finally, apple products simply cannot collect professional GPS-GIS data because Apple doesnt allow the necessary bluetooth protocols, i.e., the serial port protocol needed to permit survey grade GPS units to connect to iOS devices. Wait for the Windows 8 devices.
Excellent
Very functional mobile GIS application. Easily collect and capture spatial and attribute data with GPS or manually. GPS navigation a breeze. Data import and export also quick and easy. Great selection of base maps which can be easily buffered for offline field data capture. Auto capture of GPS tracks while you collect your other data. Easily toggle your data layers on and off and set symbology and transparency as required.
good app, great interface
Ive been using this app to do my forest technology & GIS labs at Vancouver Island University, so far its worked really well, very easy in the field, easy to build a new feature template on the fly when you want to capture some data you didnt expect. Earlier versions had some crashing issues, but they were addressed very quickly by the developers. It could use a few enhancements, but it seems the app is growing, and the developers are very responsive to feedback. Being a student I use the non-pro version and am able to move shapefiles/geodatabase features in and out via KMZ files. Not ideal as the field data gets formatted very ugly on the way from the iOS device back into ESRI, but nothing too horrible. I guess the pro version saves you this step since i believe it exports shapefiles. I looked at several other iOS GIS field data collection apps, but this ones interface is the best in my opinion.
Worth every penny
I probably spent $100 on $2-$5 apps trying to find one that worked well with shape files and offline satellite images. All the other apps were lacking in one way or another. This app has worked flawlessly and is very stable. If you compare the price to an ArcMap license, it is a steal of a deal. I finally have access to offline maps in the field with all my critical shapefiles from the office..... On an iPhone 4s.
Finally an ArcGIS replacement!
Replaces the bulk of features offered by ArcPad and other professional GIS data capturing software; only, you dont have to go to university for 5 years to know how to use it! It is as intuitive as Apple products themselves. ArcGIS is a dinosaur; offering an alternative to their crap is Heaven sent! I love the export options too. My only complaint there is that you cant export all your shapes at once. I dont know what the heck that winer critic is going on about; I paid $400 for the Pro version and, over the past 2 years, I have made my money back from it almost a thousand times over..., I guess this software just doesnt meet his specific needs. Thank God, professional grade GIS products like lasers and GPS receivers are finally being made to work with iOS! I used to use sub-metre stuff all the time, but I found that most of the users I supervised, were pathetic at achieving sub-metre accuracy regardless of the equipment capabilities. So using the primary method of coordinate capture that this offers (positioning the screen as per imagery background), combined with laser trigonometry, works much better. And of course, you still have the traditional GPS capturing methods with this software too. Good stuff Garaffa
