A method for managing location based applications providing crowdsourced structured points of input for data entry includes deploying deployable applications to a mobile computing device. Each deployable application includes a location based application component and a corresponding point of input defining structured data to be provided through a user interface control for a portion of a display for the application component. The method also includes selecting a subset of the deployable applications for display in the mobile computing device and activating one of the deployable applications in the subset for display in the mobile computing device to receive data input. Further, the method includes receiving data input for a point of input corresponding to a location based application component of the activated one of the deployable applications. Finally, the method includes storing geographic coordinates and the data input in connection with a portion of a display, such as a map display, for a corresponding application component of the activated one of the deployable applications.
