PocketPCs are small, lightweight,
and inexpensive. |
|
| |
GPS receivers for PocketPCs are also small
and inexpensive, and plug directly into the PocketPC
(or via Bluetooth) - one less thing
to carry. |
|
| |
The screens on most PocketPCs are very
readable outside in direct sunlight, and have enough resolution to
display detailed topo maps and aerial photographs. |
|
| |
It is easy to update your central SQL Server
database with data collected in the field using PocketTerra since
it uses the Microsoft .NET Compact Framework. |
|
| |
The highly detailed topographic maps and
aerial photos used by PocketTerra are downloadable free from the Microsoft
TerraServer. |
|
| |
Custom programs using the PocketTerra controls
are reliable and easily written using Microsoft Visual Studio .NET.
|
|
| |
PocketTerra is royalty-free, so that custom
programs using PocketTerra can be distributed to many users with no
additional charge besides the initial developer kit cost. |
