Survey 123 Setting Home Location

Question

Hi there,

I am not sure if this is possible in Survey 123, but does anyone have a work around where you might have several basemaps (Tile packages) that are in all different locations, can you define the extent in the builder so that when you select a certain map its already set out a specific extent. Im finding that when we are out in the field and we change basemaps, its so zoomed out that its hard to zoom into the map. I realise that you can set a home location for one basemap, but can you set bookmarks for all of the basemaps so that they are not so zoomed out.

Thanks in advance

Hi Jaime,

By default, Survey123 will use your location as the basis for the map area.  In constructing a package, you can make one package to cover all the areas at a low level of detail and then generate tiles at a higher level of detail for the specific areas.

Another possibility would be to look into creating multiple offline areas for a web map - support for web map offline areas is currently in beta on Survey123.
