ABSTRACT
Mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets, are useful tools for in situ collecting information about spatial locations. In this paper, we describe the architecture of a mobile application for geographical data gathering and validation in fieldwork. This application is being developed based on well-established standards in order to assure spatial data interoperability between existing Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI) and mobile systems.
