I won't have time this morning to post screen shots, but I will come back to this thread when I can add them. But for now, let me at least document here that, in one weekend, I successfully built an app that will be used as a demo of Android capabilities to customers. For Field Assessments.
The app provides functionality to assess issues in the field.
The user clicks a button and it downloads a list of the 10 nearest issues for review. This is done by using the current GPS location and then calling a server proc that gives me the 10 nearest issue locations. [by observing the distance between the current location and any of the issue locations]
The user chooses one of the issues to work on. The user would then do whatever field work / assessment is necessary. The user goes to the data collection screen, and that displays pertinent data for that particular issue.
The user updates the information and sends it back to the server.
There is simply no way I could have built this app with the SDK in that short a period of time. Thank you, Erel.
