Infratrack App (IA) is a simple, easy to use application developed by the Information Management Service (IMS),
designed to improve transparency and accountability in the monitoring of civil works projects implemented by the
Department. It uses geotagging technology to help the DPWH Management monitor the progress of the projects
virtually.
Infratrack has two major components, the mobile app to take geotagged photographs and the web application to see
all the geotagged photographs uploaded using the mobile app along with project details and the geographical location
of projects from the Multi-Year Programming and Scheduling Application (MYPS) and project and contract
implementation data from the Project and Contract Management Application (PCMA) implemented by Planning Service
(PS) and Bureau of Construction (BOC) respectively.
To help improve transparency and accountability by ensuring that all civil works projects that are being implemented
by the Department are on the right location as planned and to provide evidence (photographs) of physical progress.

There are four (4) specific stages and purposes for capture of these photographs:
The schedule for compliance for all stages and for other infrastructure types is stated in D.O. No. 16, Series of 2016
(Please see Annex 1).
Page 5 of 23
For the Mobilization, Monthly Progress and Completion stages, the number and type of photographs to be taken
shall be as follows:
Point: Office buildings, If flagpole is Take photograph showing the contract site.
school buildings, day care available, get the
centers, municipal location there. For the Completion Photos, the entire structure
buildings and other Otherwise, get the should be captured in the photograph.
similar infrastructure location no greater
than five meters from
the door of the
building (or the
closest area in front
of the building where
GPS signal is
available)
Step 1: Download the Survey123 for ArcGIS app, via either Google Play store, or Windows Store on your mobile
device. Open the app after downloading.
Page 6 of 23
Step 2: Press <Get Surveys> button then sign in using your ArcGIS online credentials to download the survey form
created for Infratrack App for Contract Management.
Step 1: Activate GPS on your device to ensure a more accurate survey location point.
It is a good practice for users to always check the GPS capability of their mobile devices. This will
help the users to ensure that the data being collected have coordinates or geotagged.
Make sure that the device is GPS-capable. To check this, the user shall go to device’s
Settings and turn on Location
Make sure the camera app of device is also GPS-capable: Open device’s camera app go to
camera’s Settings turn on Location or GPS or GPS tag
Page 7 of 23
Step 4: The user shall choose the Implementing Office (IO) of the Project Component to be geotagged. The user
may type a keyword to limit the choice feeds being given by the form.
b. Make sure that the photo captured is clear, otherwise press the trash bin icon to delete the photo and repeat
the process for capturing photo.
c. Once the photo has been taken, the user shall enter the Remarks.
The App will alert “Coordinates are not within the accuracy threshold of 10 m” if the accuracy before capturing
photo is more than 10 meters due to reception or GPS issues.
The user shall input in the Accuracy in meters as illustrated below to serve as justification. The user may also
input the Landmark visible in the Photo which can be a house, tree, electric post, and etc.
d. The user shall then classify the Type of Photo being captured. For every infrastructure type, there is a
corresponding list of types of photo.
Page 10 of 23
e. The user may attach more than one (1) geotagged photo to the survey by clicking the plus icon, and then
follow the same procedure for capturing photo. For every photo being taken, the Remarks and Type of Photo
should be filled in.
Step 9: Accomplished by
The user shall enter his/her Employee ID Number and Name following this format: Employee ID/Last Name, First
Name
Photo: Accomplished By
Upon entering a valid Project Component ID in Step 5, a summary of details pertaining to that Project
Component will appear to check if the user is surveying the right project component.
Page 11 of 23
If the user entered a Project Component ID that is not yet in the preloaded dataset, the user cannot proceed
to the next steps. Only the available Project Component Ids in the preloaded data can be geotagged.
Note that the form name is automatically formatted to Project Component ID and Project Description.

If the user is offline the survey will be automatically saved in the outbox
The user may send multiple surveys by clicking the <Send> Option inside the outbox
Only the Project Details of the survey is allowed to be modified. Editing the Photo Attachment is not yet
supported using Inbox. ESRI is still improving the capability of Inbox)
Contact Information Management Service (IMS) if the user wishes to delete an erroneously submitted
Survey in the Infratrack Web App
Click empty to free space in the Sent Items. Do not worry to empty the Sent Items because the user
may download and edit pre-existing form using Inbox.
The survey from Infratrack App is automatically posted in the Infratrack Web App.This has six (6) major
components: (1) Title Bar, View Tools and Search Bar, (2) Map Overview, (3) Draw and Bookmark, (4) Open
Attribute Tables, (5) Widgets Bar, and (6) Widget Tool Pop-up. The web contains construction status, showing
which projects are ongoing and which have been completed and the photos to prove it.
The Title Bar displays the name of the Application. In this case, it is Infratrack Web App. Right below the Title
Bar are the default View Tools of the web application.
Zoom In – allows user to closely examine geographic data on the data view frame
Zoom Out – allows user to view a larger scope of the data view frame
Default Extent (Home) – shifts the view the cover the whole map
Find your location – allows user to get actual location based on GPS (This will only run using https in the
browser)
The Search Bar allows the user to perform quick search for any data uploaded in this application by typing any
search item.
