• Our partner LandMark Spatial Solutions specializes in the sale of field hardware including Android devices and can provide detailed, first-hand information and advise on a wide range of hardware options including phones, tablets, GPS units and other field equipment

• Devices from Samsung have performed well with MobileMap, are cost effective and have been found to be very reliable

• Samsung’s Tab Active line provides solid, rugged(ish) devices that are water resistant and can even work in the rain due to their active stylus (S-pen) technology

• Truly rugged solutions from Juniper Systems (e.g., CT8) and Handheld Group (e.g., NAUTIZ X6 ) may provide even better performance in severe conditions (extreme cold, heat, direct sunlight, long duration field collections, high likelihood being dropped or landing on rocks, etc.).
