Katrin Willms - Leiterin Geoinformationssysteme« The National Land Survey of Finland (NLS) is revolutionizing its topographic data management system with a new infrastructure entirely based on open-source components. As part of this transformation, NLS is integrating QField and QFieldCloud to meet their specific field mapping requirements. This integration enables NLS operators to efficiently manage large quantities of data while working offline in the field. With QField, NLS ensures precise and reliable data collection in various environments, enhancing the overall efficiency and accuracy of their topographic surveys. »

In January 2022 the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai submarine volcano erupted. Ash clouds from the eruption and the subsequent tsunami damaged croplands on the Tongatapu and Ha’apai island groups. The internet cable to Tonga was severed during the eruption. In particular, QField was used to generate maps of where fields had been cleared and re-ploughed using government support.
