Leica GS16 pairing with Field Maps

Question

Hello all! I'm wondering if anyone has successfully paired and used a Leica GS16 unit with Field Maps.  We're trying to avoid purchasing a new, stand-alone GPS unit for infrastructure field collection, so we hoped that Field Maps would work with this particular Leica.  I've been unsuccessful in finding any collection examples with this combo though.

Any insights or advice is appreciated.

Thanks!

-Matt

Hi Matt - I have been researching the same thing & have not yet attempted to connect our GS16 to Field Maps or Collector. I did find this post from a few years back, which seems to indicate that it is possible to use the GS16 with Collector. https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-collector-questions/has-anyone-successfully-paired-the-lecia-gs16-gps/td-p/758291

I hope that this is helpful & I look forward to hearing about how you fare.
