Is it possible to have a hidden geopoint field that is just collected in the background? Possibly a calculate location in a hidden text filed?
The hidden geopoint is only available for the parent form. Repeats do not have the ability to have a hidden geopoint; you can add a geopoint to the repeat and have it be collected manually (you can restrict it to only capture from the GPS by setting the readonly property to 'yes').
Hi Brent,
Yes, a hidden groping field is built-in to Survey123- simply don't add a geopoint field explicitly. Survey123 automatically adds a hidden geopoint field that takes the device's location in the background.
I have a repeat in my form. Will it capture a location for each record in the repeat? Also is there any way to display the coordinates and calculate and display accuracy?
I tried the setting to read only but the map still shows and I really don't want to show the map. I would just like to see the coordinates and accuracy? Any thoughts on doing this?
I think this comment should be marked as the correct answer, since the other one answers a different question.
