Why GIS in the Field is So Hard

Traditional GIS workflows are not built for mobile teams.

Data Stays in the Office

Teams capture data on paper or in note apps. Transferring to GIS costs time and causes errors.

No Internet in the Field

In rural areas or underground infrastructure there is no network. Existing tools fail offline.

Too Many Systems

Photos in one app, GIS in another, notes in a messenger. There is no central platform for geodata.

Everything Your Team Needs

One platform for data capture, documentation, and collaboration – in the office and in the field.

Interactive GIS Maps

Interactive GIS Maps

Visualize your geodata on interactive maps with WFS, WMS, PostGIS, and Vector Tiles. Choose from 4 base maps and 8 layer types.

  • WFS/WMS/PostGIS integration
  • 4 base maps (OSM, Satellite, Terrain, Vector)
  • Custom layer styles and symbols
  • Measurements and attribute tables
Photo Management

Photo Management

Capture photos directly in the field and place them georeferenced on the map. EXIF data is automatically extracted.

  • GPS georeferencing
  • Camera integration (mobile)
  • EXIF data (camera, bearing)
  • Gallery with filters and search
Comments & Annotations

Comments & Annotations

Create spatial annotations with point, line, and polygon geometries. Slack-style threading with priorities.

  • Point, line, polygon, multi-geometry
  • Threading with replies
  • Priorities: Low to Urgent
  • Directed visibility (@mentions)
PDF Document Management

PDF Document Management

Upload PDF documents and place them directly on the map. Automatic thumbnail generation and duplicate detection.

  • Map placement with markers
  • Automatic thumbnails
  • Duplicate detection (hash-based)
  • Status tracking
Broadband Manager

Broadband Manager

Track the status of your broadband infrastructure with color-coded markers and defined workflows.

  • Dual-color markers (tube + association)
  • Status: Planned → In Progress → Complete
  • Color-coded visualization
  • Status history
Offline Mobile App

Offline Mobile App

Work without an internet connection. Maps, photos, and data are stored locally and automatically synced.

  • Offline maps (PMTiles)
  • Local data storage (SQLite)
  • Photo capture without network
  • Automatic synchronization

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about EVA-Mobil.

Yes, EVA-Mobil is offline-first. Maps are stored locally as PMTiles, data in an SQLite database. Photos can be captured and georeferenced without network. Once a connection is available again, all changes are automatically synchronized.
EVA-Mobil supports the OGC standards WFS (Web Feature Service), WMS (Web Map Service), and WMTS (Web Map Tile Service). The platform integrates seamlessly with GeoServer, PostGIS, and Martin Vector Tiles. Existing GIS infrastructure can be connected directly.
Yes, EVA-Mobil includes a specialized Broadband Manager with status workflows (Planned, In Progress, Completed, Approved), color-coded dual-color markers, and full documentation capabilities. The platform is ideal for documentation under DIN 18220 and ATB-BeStra within broadband funding programs.
EVA-Mobil runs as a web app in all modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) and as a native Android app via Capacitor. The mobile app additionally offers camera integration, GPS tracking, and full offline functionality.
EVA-Mobil is completely self-hosted. All components run in Docker containers on your own infrastructure – no vendor lock-in, no data in third-party cloud services. The entire platform can be operated on a single server.
EVA-Mobil offers multi-tenant architecture with 5 roles: Super Admin, Operator, Editor, User, and Viewer. Each account (e.g., department) has isolated data. Permissions are granularly configurable – from read-only access to full administration.
Photos are automatically tagged with GPS coordinates and placed on the map. EXIF data is extracted – including camera model and bearing direction. In the field, photos can be captured directly via camera or dragged and dropped onto the map.
Yes, through WFS/WMS/WMTS standard support, EVA-Mobil connects with QGIS, ArcGIS, and other GIS systems. GeoServer workspaces are automatically created per account. A tRPC API additionally enables programmatic access.
EVA-Mobil is individually licensed – depending on the number of users, required modules, and hosting requirements. Since the platform is modular, you only pay for the features you actually need. Request a demo to receive a non-binding offer.
Yes, EVA-Mobil is a standalone alternative to ArcGIS Collector, QField, and Mergin Maps. The key difference: EVA-Mobil is completely self-hosted (no cloud dependency), offers multi-tenant architecture for multiple departments, and integrates maps, photo management, comments, PDFs, and broadband documentation in one platform.
Yes, drone outputs like orthophotos and digital terrain models (DTM) can be integrated as WMS or WMTS layers via GeoServer. Drone photos can also be managed directly as georeferenced photos within the platform.
Data can be exported via the WFS interface into QGIS or other GIS systems. Photos and PDFs are available through MinIO Object Storage. Additionally, the tRPC API provides programmatic access to all data for custom analyses and reports.
Maximum security through self-hosting: All data stays on your own infrastructure. Multi-tenant isolation completely separates data between different accounts. Role-based access control with 5 levels manages who can see and edit which data. SSL/TLS encryption secures all communication.
