Add Marks
[Back to Top]
There are 8 possible marks that can be setup and used in SMS Mobile. The marks each
have a unique button that is shown in the Map Toolbar when a Mark is checked as active.
Mark Names can be edited and the custom name will log with your data when a Mark is
selected. When displayed on the map Marks will use a standard set of mark icons, the same
as is used in the desktop software; they will NOT use the Mark button icon when displayed
on the map.
As a general note, Marks only log a single mark per selection, they do not log continuously when
selected. Each press of a Mark button or selection from the Menu will only log one mark.
Add Landmark Notes
Landmark Notes can be defined for display across all operating modes, no matter which
mode you were in when you created a Landmark Note. Landmark Notes can only be added
when no other tools are selected/active. So for example you cannot add a Landmark Note
while you are logging coverage data unless you cancel the Log Coverage tool.
Add Layer Notes
Layer Notes (also referred to as Picture Notes) can only be added to the current dataset that
is being created/edited. Layer Notes can also be created while logging/creating data or
other tools are selected/active. Special functionality for creating Picture Notes with specific
Pest Observations in the Scouting operation is also provided.
