WorkPal is a mobile field crew application designed to help mobile field workers view the work that needs their attention. It allow dispatchers in back at the office to dispatch work to the app for the crew to work on, status, and close out. They can take pictures of issues in the field and upload them back to the office. This app uses background geolocation to track utility company employees and contractors. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. The app is designed for iPad Devices.
