Querying your data

When you are out in the field, ArcPad gives you the ability to compare your data directly to geographic features in the form of a map. More importantly, ArcPad provides the tools to query your data to solve problems and retrieve information directly in the field.

With ArcPad you can:

• Discover information about features by tapping on them
• Display additional information about features through a picture, video, or voice recording
• Locate a feature within the extent of your map, label it, and zoom to it
• Find a location and zoom to it
• Measure the distance between features
• Determine the area of a polygon feature
