Abstract: Development of mobile communication technologies introduced a new dimension in geo-information systems. Mobility is a feature which allows data collection and visualization easier and quicker. From the commander point of view, having the location of his subordinate units is very important. Traditional maps can not fully satisfy user’s needs since most of objects which have to be located are not static in space and time. In this paper a solution for Android platform is presented which allows collection, storing and visualization of spatial data. Collection is done by using GPS technical and visualization is done by using Google Maps service. The application runs in real time which is its main advantage. Spatial data can be sent to target destination in a very short time.

Keywords: mobile, android, surveillance, user-oriented, simple.
