This application is part of the OTISS survey system, and is used by Estate Managers and their staff to carry out tree safety surveys and condition surveys on outdoor assets (park & street furniture, field assets, etc). This app and your GPS-enabled android phone or tablet is an alternative to buying specialised and expensive survey equipment for on-site data collection.
The Estate Survey app works with the www.otiss.co.uk website to provide a range of maps and tools for carrying out asset and tree safety surveys, management and report generation. All users must first register for an account on the OTISS website. A free 30 day evaluation period is allowed, after which an annual subscription will be charged for continued use of the OTISS system - see the OTISS website for more details. Note: this Estate & Asset Survey app is free to download, evaluate and use – no charges are made to your phone or Android market accounts.
