Mergin Maps: an open source platform for your field data collection
Peter Wells
Mergin Maps is suite of software to help QGIS/GIS users for their field collection. The app component is based on QGIS. Users with no or limited GIS knowledge can easily operate the app. The app works fully offline and the data can be synchronised once online. Multiple users can work on the same project and add/edit the same data source. The service behind the synchronisation consolidate the data from multiple devices and then you can easily download the data through a plugin to your QGIS desktop.
There are various tools we have developed to integrate the service to enterprise SDI. For example with Database sync tool, you can take a Postgres/PostGIS dataset and make it available offline for your users. The data are versioned and kept in sync with all users and the database.
