The EDMS Field application is a separate program that can be run on tablets and laptops to collect environmental data and then send this data remotely to the
EDMS application. The field data consists of sample and station information and is transmitted as Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) files to EDMS.
EDMS Field is used in conjunction with EDMS to improve and standardize environmental data collection, management, and reporting in an efficient and cost-effective manner.
This is accomplished by implementing a documented, auditable process for the collection, storage, and reporting of environmental field data.
Throughout this process all stages of the sampling and analysis are tracked and notifications can be sent via email or SMS (text message).
Notifications for non-compliance events and sample exceedences can be automatically sent by the system.
Some of the many benefits provided by EDMS Field are:
- Capture of environmental data in the field.
- Standardize the procedures for the collection of environmental data.
- Reduce the time and effort required for data handling and reporting.
- Improve the efficiency of reporting to meet internal and external requirements.
- Fully integrated with the EDMS module within GaeaSynergy.
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) files are used to exchange data between the EDMS module, EDMS Field, and EDMS Lab. To use this feature of the EDMS module, the network version must be
installed and the EDMS Service running.
All EDI filess are stored in XML format and are transferred either by email or FTP. These EDI files are automatically imported by the receiving application when that application is started.

When using the network version of EDMS, notifications can be sent throughout the work process.
These notifications can only be setup in tasks and can only be used when tasks are
used to control the work flow.
