FIELDSEEKER CORE
Field and office tools for workflows associated with Larviciding with storm drain treatments. Surveillance and Service Request
FieldSeeker Core is a cloud-based system leveraging the Esri® ArcGIS® Online or ArcGIS Enterprise platform to provide users with simple, intuitive tools for mapping, collecting and reporting data related to mosquito control activities. Field and office users benefit from seeing a common up-to-date picture of their operations. Data is centrally located so it may be shared, analyzed, or updated throughout an organization.
FieldSeeker Core, an all-in-one app, includes tools for Larviciding with storm drain treatments, Surveillance and Services Request workflows. The cross-platform mobile app is easily deployed through the Apple Store, Google Play Store, and Windows Store and supports real-time connectivity with off-line editing capabilities. The FieldSeeker Core office suite is a Web app based on the Esri JavaScript API. There is nothing to install, access using any web browser. Since FieldSeeker Core is based on the industry standard Esri platform, the organization maintains full control and ownership of maps and data.

OPTIONAL VECTORSURV GATEWAY INTEGRATION FOR FIELDSEEKER CORE
What started as the CalSurv Gateway in California is now known as the Vectorborne Disease Surveillance System, or VectorSurv. The system now serves California, Utah, New Jersey, Arizona, Hawaii, North Carolina, Tennessee, and the U.S. Territory of Guam with other states looking to adopt the system.
Participating agencies use the VectorSurv Gateway to track, analyze, and share disease surveillance data for adult mosquito trapping, pooling, and testing; blood, tissue, or specimen samples (such as sentinel chicken blood samples and dead birds); and control efforts such as application treatments on larval sources.
FieldSeeker Core also supports collection and entry of all the same surveillance data, which is used in conjunction with other operational data to facilitate decision making and effective mosquito control activities.
Because the same data needs to exist in each system for different reasons, FieldSeeker Core and VectorSurv have been integrated so that data can be synced in both directions eliminating double entry of voluminous lab data required for surveillance.
FIELDSEEKER WINDOWS ULV ADULTICIDING EXTENSION
Field and Office Tools for Recording Adulticiding Activities
FieldSeeker Windows ULV Adulticiding Extension is an end-to-end system for managing and reporting adulticiding activities. It is a standalone system consisting of a Windows 10 desktop office application and Windows 10 field collection application.
FieldSeeker Windows ULV Adulticiding Extension is built on Open GIS technology. Esri licensing is not required for standard operation but can be leveraged for advanced functionality and syncing data with FieldSeeker Core software. Spray session data is recorded by the FieldSeeker Windows ULV mobile app and stored in the Windows 10 mobile device. Mobile data is synchronized with the office using online storage services such as Google Drive or Dropbox, to a shared folder through Wi-Fi, or using removable USB storage.
