Bootstrap Case

Using the ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Android, you can build lightweight mobile GIS applications and deploy them to Android devices. In this seminar, you will learn how to code mapping apps that employ common smartphone user behaviors, such as pinching, swiping, and tapping. End users can use the apps to navigate maps, collect and report data, and perform GIS analyses.
