Collect an as-built

As-Built Mapping is designed to be used to collect as-built locations using a mobile device. Follow the steps below to understand the software/application requirements and learn to collect an as-built using a mobile device and ArcGIS Collector.

Software Requirements

To use As-Built Mapping requires specific software and applications for each field technician in your organization. Below is the software required:

  • ArcGIS organizational account
  • ArcGIS Collector

Inventory

Once you have verified that the device you will be using includes the required software and have access to your ArcGIS organization, you can use the As-Built Mapping map to collect as-built in the field.

To collect a as-built in the field, complete the following steps:

  1. Open Collector for ArcGIS and sign in using your ArcGIS organizational account.
  2. Once signed in, you will be presented with all the maps that you have access to. Search for as-built to find the As-Built Mapping map.
  3. Select the As-Built Mapping map's thumbnail to open it. If you have enabled location services, the map will open to your current location.
  4. Collect a new feature, selecting the as-built editing template.
  5. Update the attributes of the as-built.
  6. Browse to the map, and select Stream. As you walk the length of the as-built, you will see your points collected to create the line. If walking the as-built length is not possible, you can manually add the line to the map. Map search in Collector for ArcGIS
  7. When you have finished recording the as-built's attributes and geometry, click Submit.
