Submit-ready Hawaii SIHP site forms
in minutes, not days
Hawaii's State Historic Preservation Division (SHPD), within DLNR, maintains the Statewide Inventory of Historic Places (SIHP) and HICRIS; resources are assigned SIHP and HICRIS numbers through project review, survey, or inventory forms. FieldTap keeps your field records organized and export-ready for that submission.
Why state forms break every other tool
Every state has its own paper site form. Hawaii's is Hawaii SIHP site forms — a fixed PDF layout SHPD expects to receive exactly as published. Generic field tools give you two bad options: rebuild the form by hand in their form builder (and still retype results into the official PDF), or pay for a professional services engagement to digitize each form.
Either way, every revision the agency publishes restarts the cycle. CRM firms end up paying for software and still doing the typing.
Import once. Map once. Done forever.
Report Builder is the only feature on the market that lets a CRM firm digitize a state's official PDF form themselves — no professional-services bill, no rebuilding the form by hand. Map the fields once and every record auto-exports a submit-ready SHPD PDF for the life of your firm.

What SHPD reviewers expect
- Resources are assigned SIHP and HICRIS numbers through project review, survey, or inventory forms — FieldTap supports placeholder numbers swapped on export.
- The SIHP is maintained by SHPD and updated regularly — FieldTap exports records ready for that submission.
- Coordinates must agree across the form, map, and any GIS deliverable — FieldTap generates all three from one record.
- Section 106 review under the NHPA (and Hawaii's Chapter 6E historic preservation law) drives most Hawaii fieldwork; consistent records reduce revision cycles.
Hawaii SHPO FAQ
How does FieldTap fit Hawaii's SHPD workflow?
FieldTap is where you record sites in the field. Every record carries location, attributes, and GPS-tagged photos, organized and exportable, so completing inventory survey forms and AIS reports for SHPD is fast instead of a re-keying exercise.
Does FieldTap handle SIHP numbering?
Yes. Crews record with placeholder numbers; once SHPD assigns the SIHP/HICRIS number you update the record and exports refresh.
Does this work offline in remote Hawaii?
Yes. Recording, GPS, and photos run fully offline. Sync and export require connectivity.
Can we map a Hawaii site form PDF?
Yes. Report Builder accepts any PDF, including internal QA forms.
What about GIS deliverables?
Shapefile, GeoJSON, and CSV come from the same record as the PDF, so coordinates and attributes always agree.
