<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am looking for suggestions/spec for a Windows* tablet** that can run QGIS during data collection and recording on archaeological sites (dusty, sometimes damp). The work is recording simple attributes and short text comments onto shapefiles
of e.g. wall elevations (up to 20,000 polygons, although these could be split up). There will be geo-tif orthophotos of the wall elevations/plans as well, although these could be lo-res. All processing and analysis will be done in office on a desktop, tablet
is just for recording.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Need a tablet that can work rapidly without beachballing between commands or when pan across mapping. SSD, 8GB RAM enough? Any advice appreciated,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">*QField is not suitable for this project<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">**must be a tablet that can fit in a ruggedised case, laptops are no good for the work<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best wishes<o:p></o:p></p>
