1. GIS Project: Field Data Collection
NHFG awarded $14,000 for a WebGIS Launch Kit from Esri Professional Services from cap budget for GIS
Approved by NH GIS Committee (authorized under RSA 4-F) and recommended by NH GIS Technical Advisory Committee (GTAC)
Aligns with the Objectives of Strategy # 3 of the GIS Action Plan

2. PROJECT MOTIVATION
End-of-Life-Cycle workflows in place (Trimbles with ArcPad)
Collaborative success demonstrated by NHDOT SADES using ArcGIS Online and Collector apps
Potential to use and expand on SADES methodology to benefit natural resource groups and other state agencies
NHFG and DNCR-DFL are currently using Trimble devices with Esri ArcPad software for field data collection.
Seeking replacement workflow (hardware/software solution)
NHDOT SADES project successful collaboration demonstrated by NH Stream Crossing Initiative

3. OBJECTIVES
Introduce data collection phase to the current “Agency Map Viewers Pilot Project”
Adhere to and augment best practices from the map viewer project
Demonstrate transferability of NHDOT SADES model to natural resource agencies = collaborative workflow: NHFG, DNCR-Div. of Forests & Lands and NHB, OSI-CLSP state lands infrastructure and natural resource features
Agency Map Viewers Pilot Project (underway) funded by cap budget for GIS
Web map and AGOL content for Field Data Project will adhere to best practices from Map Viewers Project
Demonstrate transferability of SADES

4. STEPS
Use ESRI WEBGIS LaunchKit to jumpstart ArcGIS Online content and workflows
Continue data collection workflow development using ESRI recommendations
Deploy final products:
Field data applications for ArcGIS Online
Public and private facing data viewers
Esri Professional Services offers customizable WebGIS Launch Kit, an onsite engagement (pricing through State of NH agreement)
Data collection workflow guided by Esri to work with new version of Collector for ArcGIS (Aurora)
Final products: mobile apps AND public and internal viewers

28. Take web maps offline Ensure all layers are enabled for offline use.
Under Map Areas, click Manage Areas  Create Area and navigate to a part of the map
Type a descriptive name for the map area
Level of Detail Slider
Update packages for download: set interval and time map area packages will be refreshed (re: changes to feature layer data) can select “Never”
Refresh does Not apply to tile layers.
Web map can have up to 16 map areas.
Some detailed notes from Esri for offline maps

29. Advanced offline settings
Ensure all layers are enabled
Control feature and attachment delivery:
1.) Editable features, choose deliver both features and attachments, features only, or neither.
2.) Read-only features, choose deliver both features and attachments or features only.
Use a tile package for the offline basemap, choose:
1.) Device will use the basemap defined by the web map
2.) Device will use a tile package it already has—if choosing this option, ensure the tile package covers the area or areas you plan to work with offline.
Click Save to save your changes.
If you modify these settings after you create preplanned map areas, you will need to re-create the map areas.
