Your data
Where your crew's work is kept, how it syncs, how to take it out, and what never reaches Mapit Cloud.
- Where your data is keptOn the phones, in the EU, encrypted with your organisation's own key: and who can see it, Mapit staff included.
- Syncing, working offline and conflictsWhat a sync sends and receives, why working offline is normal, and what happens when two people change the same thing.
- Resolving conflictsReading a conflict, choosing whose edit stands, and what the crew's phones receive afterwards.
- Taking your data out, and deleting itExporting a project, downloading your own data, and what deleting a project, an account or an organisation removes.
- Adding a project on the portalDesigning a new cloud project's layers and fields on this site, keeping it as a draft, and publishing it to the crew.
- Changing a project's structureAdding layers and fields on this site, retiring a layer, making it active again, removing one, and what each does to the crew's phones.
- Keeping the app up to dateWhy Mapit Cloud can ask a phone to update before it syncs, and why nothing on the phone is lost meanwhile.
- Web mapsMaking a map from your WFS layers, styling each layer, colouring it by a field's value, and what a viewer sees.
- Matching photos to featuresPhotos stay on the phones that took them. How to collect them and match each one to its feature.
