Field-based research in any field-based discipline involves recording of huge datasets, multiple researchers. There is a need for an integrated platform that allows seamless data recording and post-field data analysis, using contextrich and spatially-coded data. This research analyses the operations of a mobile application, NIEmGeo, that integrates field-based data recording and integrates post-field quantitative analysis and spatial mapping on one single platform. The application has been used by more than 2000 students for field-based research so far, allowing opportunities to teachers to venture out with large numbers of students, otherwise impossible.
