Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Field Maps are powerful tools for the management and mapping of various types of geographic data. In this study, we explore the use of these tools to efficiently register and manage various features of the Campus Agronomie Herăstrău environment. We developed an app using Field Maps that allowed us to collect data on different features of the campus, including buildings, outdoor spaces, and facilities. This comprehensive digital map created could be accessed and customized by users in real-time, allowing for quick and accurate decision-making. Our results show that the use of Field Maps provided an efficient and accurate way to register and manage different features of the campus. The app allowed us to quickly and easily collect data on various features of the campus, including their location, size, and condition. The customizable features of Field Maps also allow us to adapt the map to changing conditions. Our study highlights the potential of Field Maps as a valuable tool for efficient spatial data management. In addition, we examine the broader implications of our study, highlighting the potential for GIS and Field Maps to improve the management of complex geographic systems beyond the context of campus environments.
