InfoGeographics Releases MapChecker for Administrators

Traverse City, Michigan – InfoGeographics Inc. is pleased to announce that it has published MapChecker, an App on the Apple, Google Play, and Microsoft Stores.

Administrators of web mapping sites are responsible for those sites being up and healthy. When a site stops working or becomes hobbled, it is sometimes difficult to find out what is happening, especially if the administrator is not in the office or can access central resources.
MapChecker is a mobile tool designed to examine the status of underlying resources for web mapping sites, being particularly designed for use with Esri ArcGIS Online (AGOL), Esri Portal for ArcGIS and Geocortex Essentials. This tool will report on the status of AGOL and Portal Web Maps and Geocortex Essentials Sites and the underlying services and features. Simple flags indicate up/down status with additional information, and error messages for problem resources to help diagnose any issues.

The best news is MapChecker Basic is FREE on the app stores for use with public sites and publicly available resources. Sites that implement authentication can be checked with a simple in-app subscription purchase for MapChecker Pro.

“We are very pleased to provide another useful tool for GIS and IT administrators. This app will increase the ability for administrators to check the health and status of their web mapping resources when out of the office. We look forward to continuing to provide effective apps that provide operational support and enhance the end user experience.” says James Bennett, President of InfoGeographics.
