“…Based on the existing research, environmental conditions include different network environments, common operating platforms, various basemap formats, and so on [29,30]. Popular mobile collection platforms like ArcGIS Field Map [31], QField [32], Open Data Kit (ODK) [33], and FAIMS [34] support common spatial databases and attribute data under various environmental conditions. For example, ArcGIS Field Map and QField allow users to configure structured, text, and multimedia data, offering visualization controls such as drop-down boxes and multiple-choice buttons [35].…”

Geographic information collection platforms are widely used for acquiring geographic information. However, existing geographic information collection platforms have limited adaptability and configurability, negatively affecting their usability. They do not support complete field collection workflows or capture data with complex nested structures. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a generic geographic information collection platform based on a comprehensive XML schema definition and a corresponding XML toolkit. This platform includes professional and non-professional versions of collection software, as well as a management system. Users can configure controls and define nested tables within this platform to collect heterogeneous and complex nested data. Moreover, the platform supports functions such as task assignment, local deployment servers, multitasking parallelism, and summary statistics of heterogeneous data, ensuring complete workflow support for field data collection. The platform has been applied in agriculture, forestry, and related fields. This paper uses the agricultural industry structure survey as a case study. Practical applications and our case study show that this platform can reduce software development costs, lower user knowledge prerequisites, and fulfill 95% of geographic information collection scenarios.
