How would I go about getting the geopoint/lat. long. coordinates to display 8 digits of percision decimal degrees instead of DMS?
I did see this. I am currently looking at it and trying to figure out where to plug in certain rows on my current template that I need the calculation for.
Did you see this post by Andrew Shoemaker?

I am currently looking for a setting that does that via Survey123 Connect, because I assumed this is where it would be found, but I have had no luck locating it...
Hi Nakia Porter,
The formula to calculate decimal degrees from DMS is:
dd = d + m/60 + s/3600
So:
52° 9' 18.62" = 52° + 9'/60 + 18.62"/3600 = 52,15517222222222°
But wait, isn't there a setting to display the coordinates in decimal degrees?
