Android field mapping

Hydrant Manager

Record hydrant flow tests on a map, keep recurring test history, calculate GPM, find the nearest pinned hydrant, and export hydrant records when the work needs to leave the device.

Built for field records

Map hydrants once. Keep every test tied to the right location.

Hydrant Manager focuses on the daily utility workflow: place hydrants on a map, record pressure and pitot readings, review prior tests, and move data through CSV when needed.

Hydrant history

Each hydrant can hold recurring tests with date, static pressure, residual pressure, pitot pressure, orifice size, and calculated GPM.

CSV import and export

Export all hydrant test rows with Android's document picker, or import hydrants from CSV to create records and append non-duplicate tests.

Map-first operation

Use device location, switch map layers, long-press to pin hydrants, and open the installed maps app for turn-by-turn navigation.

Nearest hydrant Find the closest pinned hydrant from the device location.

Nearest-hydrant checks use local records and show approximate distance in feet.

Flow tests Calculate GPM from pitot pressure and orifice size.

The app uses Q = 29.83 * d^2 * sqrt(p) and shows trend history when a hydrant has multiple tests.

Privacy Hydrant records stay local unless the user exports them.

No analytics, advertising trackers, telemetry, or developer-operated remote collection service is built into the app.
