Features & Capabilities

QField focuses on efficiently getting GIS fieldwork done and exchanging data between the field and the office in a comfortable and user-friendly way.

QField has won the prestigious Best of Swiss Apps Award 2022 in the enterprise category and thanks to its native integration with QFieldCloud, your fieldwork will be as efficient as possible.

Built on top of the popular QGIS open-source project, QField lets users consume fully configured projects in the field, allowing for customized feature forms, map themes, print layouts, and more, bringing the power of QGIS to your fingertips.

Leveraging open source libraries such as gdal, SQLite and PostGIS, QField reads, displays and allows editing of a wide variety of spatial vector and raster datasets. Users can view and modify datasets wherever they are, whether they have been downloaded onto your device, shared in emails or transferred via USB cable.

The supported formats include:

  • QGIS project files (.qgs, .qgz, as well as geopackage-embedded projects);
  • SQLite-based geopackage and spatialite databases;
  • GeoJSON, KML, GPX, and shapefile vector datasets;
  • GeoTIFF, GeoPDF, WEBP, and JPEG2000 raster datasets.

Permissions

QField can use location permission to draw a marker overlaying device location on top of spatial projects and datasets. QField can also display and use location details such as latitude, longitude, elevation, and accuracy while entering data.

Very nice app, elegant UI. Their cloud service works well. With a bit of qgis knowledge the options are huge. I can get the measure feature in imperial units but cannot get the navigation/stakeout feature in anything but metric. If that were easy to get it'd be nearly a home run for me.

Could you make measure function imperial other than only metric.

I love this app and all the abilities it has unlocked! The only piece missing is the ability to open local files in iOS that could then be synchronized via iCloud. Would love to be able to work on a collaborative farm project with my family members through iCloud. Thank you so much for this amazing app!!!
