Getting started
Mergin Maps is an open-source mobile application based on QGIS that makes field data collection easier.
With Mergin Maps, you can take your QGIS projects with you anywhere in the field. You can then add, store, and edit your data collaboratively, synchronizing it in real time between team members and from the mobile app to QGIS. In this workshop, discover all the benefits of collecting data with Mergin Maps compared with a traditional approach.
Discover how the Mergin Maps ecosystem integrates with QGIS:
The Mergin Maps QGIS plugin
The Mergin Maps mobile app
Mergin Maps Server and Web
This workshop offers an introduction to using Mergin Maps: converting a QGIS project into a Mergin Maps-compatible project, creating forms suited to mobile interfaces, and putting mobile data entry into practice with the app.
The workshop will also cover best practices for maintaining a Mergin Maps project, as well as an overview of the advanced features offered by Mergin Maps, including photo management, GNSS receiver support, synchronization with a PostGIS database, geofencing, and more.
And also… a look at the future improvements we are currently working on for upcoming versions of Mergin Maps!
