GPS Functionality for Survey123

I have been testing the functionality of obtaining GPS information from a smartphone and tablet device as a mechanism to capture additional metadata. 

Functions I have used:

  • regex function to determine device type
  • pull data from geopoint

Devices used:

  • Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 8.0"
  • Apple iPhone 6

Of note the Samsung did not capture the vertical accuracy.

Please feel free to download the pull a part.
