SMASH, the smart mobile app for surveyor’s happiness, is a slick app dedicated to digital field mapping.
The open source flutter app for Android, IOS (and upon request Linux, Macos and Windows) is packed with features, as for example: Geopackage and PostGIS editing support, Kalman filter on gps logs, geo-fences, native geotiff and shapefile visualization support, SLD styling for vector datasets.
SMASH’s web counterpart is the Survey Server, a web application that allows groups of surveyors to centralize data collection. Users can synchronize the data from the app, but also download dedicated forms and projects, as well as basemaps and datasets. The server is built upon the same technology as the mobile app and visualizes the data with the same look and feel. Notes serverside-versioning has been introduced to enhance synchronization of data by teams. A redmine plugin is being developed by community members to create a geo-ticketing system.
This presentations gives an insight about the state of the art of the SMASH ecosystem and its current roadmap.
