Mobile mapping applications are software tools that allow users to capture and visualize geographic data using their smartphones or tablets. These applications utilize GPS, cameras, and sensors to create detailed maps and 3D models of the environment. They are commonly used in fields like urban planning, transportation, and environmental monitoring. These applications can provide real-time navigation, location-based services, and data collection for various purposes. Users can easily share their findings and collaborate with others, making mobile mapping a valuable resource for professionals and hobbyists alike. Popular examples include Google Maps and ArcGIS Field Maps.
