FireMapper Forms

Overview

FireMapper Forms is a tool for collecting field data using customisable forms. Forms are organisation specific and can be quickly defined as a combination of different field types, including text, number, and categorical fields. Forms can be attached to any point, line, area, or label type. When a user places a feature with a form attached, the form will automatically open for data entry.

Saved form responses are attached to the feature on form completion and can be viewed by selecting the feature.

Any form responses can be edited in the feature details tab. Edits will create a new version of the feature, which means you will always be able to recover previous inputs. Form responses can be viewed both in the Portal and in FireMapper Enterprise.

Export

Form data can be exported from the Export Tab in the Portal Map Viewer. Simply click “Download FireMapper Forms”, which will generate a spreadsheet containing only the latest response for each feature with a form attached.

Configuring Forms

Currently, Forms can only be configured by contacting support@firemapper.app. We may allow organisations to create their own forms in future releases. We encourage you to get in touch if you’re considering setting up a form.

Forms Dashboard

Built to work alongside FireMapper Forms, Forms Dashboard is a reporting and visualisation tool where you can access all form responses in a single view. These include the total number of responses, number of responses received in the current week, response rate and the last response time. You can also view the number of responses received over time in 30-minute intervals on a graph.

Details

  • Multiple forms can be attached to the same feature type

  • Once a map has been created, the forms configured for that map are frozen - meaning changes

to forms will not affect maps that have already been created * Conditional form progression is not supported (i.e. answering “No” to question 1 then automatically jumping to question 5)
