ROVER Version 2.1 now available

Here is a brief summary of what’s new with version 2.1.

ROVER Version 2.1 is now available for free download by registered users. Version 2.1 is the latest public version of ROVER, FEMA’s mobile technology for end-to-end, pre- and post-earthquake building safety screening. The new version offers unlimited digital captioned photos in post-earthquake (ATC-20) data collection forms (both rapid and detailed), just as in the pre-earthquake screens. It fixes a bug with the RedROVER configuration screens that prevented the user from changing and saving benchmark years. It addresses a change in the Google Maps API to restore the ability to look up lat/lon from address. And it provides a wide variety of UI changes from version 1.0 to optimize the screen for various devices. We have also replaced out-of-date documentation with docs for version 2.
