基础入门¶
Follow these steps to go from a QGIS project to collecting data in the field with QField.
1. Install QField¶
Download QField for your device from the homepage — available for Android, iOS, Windows, macOS and Linux.
2. Prepare your project in QGIS¶
Install the QFieldSync plugin in QGIS and use it to "package" your project so it can be opened in QField.
3. Get your project onto your device¶
Choose how you want to transfer the packaged project:
- Cable / local transfer: copy the package directly to your device, as described in the QFieldSync tutorial.
- QFieldCloud: register for QFieldCloud and follow the QFieldCloud tutorial to sync your project automatically between your team and your devices.
4. Collect data in the field¶
Open the project in QField to start browsing and digitizing data. See Principles to understand how QField's modes and workflow are designed.
5. Sync your data back¶
Bring your changes back to your desktop project — over cable, or automatically if you used QFieldCloud.
