Acquire
Sourcing the data for decision making

ATLAS Acquire is designed to streamline data collection in the field. Built for mobile devices running Android and iOS, it is accessible to almost anyone. Data is backup up to the cloud whenever a device is within cellular coverage to minimise the risk of data loss, even if a device breaks down or gets lost.

Acquire is customised to support ATLAS analysis tools such as PSP and Cruiser. In due course, it will replace ATLAS FieldMan which currently serves this purpose. Acquire can also be configured to collect user-defined data structures of almost any type, making it a very flexible and powerful platform for anyone needing to collect data.
