Hi guys and gals
Working for a civil and structural engineer and they're contemplating getting samsung tablets to do work in the field with. I can see some possible uses such as integrating GIS on one and taking them into the field to update data and allowing me to take fairly complex and large spreadsheets onsite to be updated on the fly... But I'm not sure these can justify the costs so was wondering what others are using them for to get some food for thought. Would also like to know if you've used them and then dumped them for what ever reason. These are fairly longterm contracts at 2 years so we would like to know with some knowledge behind us as to whether they're worth it or not
Thx in advance
