GeoDroid Mapper

GeoDroid Mapper is a geological digital field notebook application that allows the user to collect and store lithologic, geotechnical, structural, positional, and datum information in a variety of input formats. Common lookup lists are used for lithologic and structural data (planar and linear features); a new lithologic manager allows custom, user-defined, lookup lists from an extensive library of igneous, metamorphic, and/or sedimentary rock types; text and camera inputs are available for recording additional observations and notes at each outcrop.

The relational-database is organized in a one-to-many format to allow for complete flexibility regarding the number structural measurements necessary at each map station. The need for external GPS receivers is eliminated; as the device's internal GPS unit is used for northing and easting data.

GeoDroid Mapper is integrated with the ESRI ArcGIS Android library to plot and display map station numbers on an interactive base map. Long tapping at the GPS point or the Cross Hair allows for new data to be entered into the database. Once entered, tapping the map station icon launches a viewing window to review, edit, and/or add to your recorded data. Within the viewing window, the user can tap an edit button to make necessary edits of the record set.
