CartoMobile can also send the contents of updated geospatial data via email. This process sends just the layers that are requested by the user, and will only send layers that the user has the ability to modify (for example: read-only layers that are used as backdrops or ancillary information for the field users will not be included).
The data will be sent as a single Zip-compressed archive containing the complete contents of all selected layers.
Sending Layers via Email

Emailed zip files containing layers contain all features, not just those added or changed. This is helpful in that deleted features will be obvious, but requires some care when assembling information from multiple users. As such, it is suggested that a empty layer be used for each user if they work in overlapping territories. When they work in distinct territories, editing the existing file is fine |
