MOBILE TASKS

Activities related to data analyses are managed in part using task objects representing tasks that need to be performed. In one embodiment, a method comprises: receiving a first request to generate a task object that describes a task; responsive to the first request, generating the task object, the task object being a data structure that comprises values for task object fields that represent attributes of the task; identifying, in a repository of data objects, a particular data object to associate with the task object; determining that a first field of the task object fields corresponds to a second field of the particular data object, the second field of the particular data object having a particular value; and assigning the first field of the task object to the particular value of the corresponding second field. In another embodiment, task objects are associated with geolocation data, and mapped or otherwise presented accordingly.
