Is there going to be capability soon where you can upload the data via USB and not Wi-FI?

AlicePence

The wi-fi is spotty (I would like to use a different term but will keep it rated G) in the office and would like to know if the capability of uploading data via USB to desktop is coming. Most the time I need to go to the local Thomas Hammer to download data so there are no sync errors.

Yes we are working on tools that will help bring the data on your device to a fgdb and it then can be merged into a master database.

Being able to sync only via wireless is a pretty big barrier to implementing collector for most federal land management agencies, which, big surprise, don't have wireless coverage over 99.9999% of the lands they manage. Looking forward to seeing this FGDB capability.

That feature would be greatly appreciated!

Any update on "Yes we are working on tools that will help bring the data on your device to a fgdb and it then can be merged into a master database.".

Collector's a great tool in the testing that we've done, unfortunately, I don't see any way we can use it operationally if we have to hang feature services outside of a firewall to work with AGOL or spend $$$$ on secure wirelss to Portal for Org.

This tool to migrate data from the database on the device to a gdb will be in the 10.3 release of ArcMap.

Russell the tool appears to only deal with one-way sync: from the device, back to the feature service, and assumes that the provisioning of the device via wireless was successful. Are there, or are there not, any plan to add the ability to provision and sync collector via USB for those of us with no access to wireless at all?

I got this to work with a micro USB to USB OTG adapter and a USB OTG to RJ45 adapter. You plug your ethernet cord into that. And you need the local network settings on the device, if your device supports a connection like that... I forget the details... stuff like the DNS settings and whatnot, and I think you set a static IP for the device. I did this initially until I got wifi installed here. Oh, the USB to RJ45 adapter you need is the BobJGear internet adaptor for Android, which you can get on Amazon. I got a different one initially (Startech) and it did not work. By the way, this will probably not work for Apple devices, since they are much less flexible in general.

Russel are there planned upgrades to this tool to allow bi-directional sync where no wireless is available to provision the device, or sync it back to the parent service?
