Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Computing in Civil Engineering

Abstract:

Multnomah County, Oregon has developed 'field-to-office' automation systems incorporating pen computers as a data collection tool. This technology was integrated into civil engineering applications, including a road information database system. As a result, the pen computer has proven to be an effective device in managing electronic information.
