The IDENA map viewer can also be used via smartphone or tablet browser facilitating the possibility to use the SITNA geographical information on the field.
Consumed from a mobile device, the application interface adapts itself looking for a better user experience. Buttons and panels fit to facilitate the use of the application using small size touch screens.
It is intended that the application can be used on the field as an auxiliary and support tool. For this reason, the typical funcionalities of a GIS Viewer are extended with some features that enhance its use in this context, including:
By default, the application is loaded in on-line mode and works with information offered by IDENA (WMS and WFS) services from the available layers menu but you can also access to any other WMS data source.
In the case that the application is going to be used in a location in which it is suspected there is no coverage or, simply, when it is not desired a mobile data consumption, it exists the possibility to select an area and download the orthophoto, base map, or both of them to your mobile device in order to be consumed in offline mode. To download this information, it is necessary to have connection at that moment and enough storage space in the device.
The application provides the ability to load routes on the map but also allows to generate them. Selecting the tracking option, the device's GPS position is recorded generating a track in which you can also add waypoints. These tracks can be later consulted on the same map or exported to other formats (GPX and KML). The tool provides utilities for interactively query the information of each point as well as the elevation profile of the route.
