Configure collection forms to spec
Streamline data collection and field work with Locus Mobile
Most of the data behind EHS, ESG, water quality, and remediation initiatives comes from sources outside the office. While smart meters automate some remote data collection, recurring EHS audits and complex remediation sampling events require venturing into the field.
Environmental professionals collect data from varied off-site locations – rural landfills, mountain valleys, remote streams, warehouses, or even industrial rooftops. Locus Mobile app is the ideal companion to collect data from the farthest reaches and load it directly into the Locus system.
Benefits
Locus manages over 1,250,000 worldwide locations and 500,000,000 analytical records in real time.

Real-Time Analytical Records
Work while connected or off grid
Locus Mobile guides the collection of qualitative and quantitative data that fulfills any business need – even in remote areas without signal. Offsite inspectors and field workers use their iOS mobile devices to complete custom forms and surveys for the record. Users are immediately alerted if their values are outside the pre-defined acceptable data range for the form – enabling corrections to be made on-the-spot. Once back online, the data collected via Locus Mobile syncs with the client’s Locus software and is ready for review.
Thorough incident investigations
Locus Mobile supports an unlimited number of custom forms and checklists for any type of incident. Whether investigating discharges in a storm drain or injuries in a warehouse, Locus Mobile prompts the investigator to complete each required field and collect photos, if needed. All data is synced with Locus to trigger subsequent workflows or corrective actions, and PDF inspection reports can be generated in the field.
Accelerate sampling events
Locus Mobile’s augmented reality tool uses geolocation to help field workers find precise destinations, such as wells and outfalls. The app senses the user’s GPS coordinates and elevation relative to target locations and then displays onscreen guidance when the destination is within the field of view of the device lens. Upon arriving at the sample location, field parameters can be recorded via Locus Mobile to be synched with the full sample plan. Data is geo-tagged to confirm it was collected from the right locations.
Facility inspections and equipment tests
Locus Mobile facilitates data collection for routine inspections, and it can be configured for specific use cases, such as refrigerant management. For example, HVAC contractors or facility managers can generate service records within Locus and then use the mobile app to capture current values for everything from refrigerant vacuum levels, temperatures, and pressure readings to the details pertaining to leaks, such as discovery date, repair date, actions taken, and follow-up test results.
Waste container tracking
Locus Mobile scans the barcodes, QR codes, and RFIDs used to identify drums and canisters and tracks each unit along its journey from origination point to an accredited waste handler.
GHG emissions data
A company’s 3rd party consultants can use Locus Mobile to capture emissions inputs in the field and feed directly into the Locus system for ESG reporting.
