GNSS Metadata field for Antenna Height

Zedwards_SIPI — Sun, 01 Oct 2023 21:16:24 GMT

From what I've researched, I do not see the ability to pull the field-entered antenna height (from ESRI Field Maps) into a GPS/GNSS metadata field. One idea would be to put the Antenna Height as a field created in the Add GPS Metadata tool within ArcGIS Pro. It would also be nice to add this within AGOL (Field Maps Designer workflow). If a user enters a 2 meter antenna height into ESRI Field Maps for their receiver, that should be recorded from a metadata perspective. This is especially useful for folks NOT using a standard height like 2 meters, but rather uncommon antenna heights and if the field user needs to adjust the antenna between features. If I am missing something, could someone point me to this functionality!

This would be amazing! Sometimes people forget to put in the antenna height and there is no way to tell.

@DougMorgenthaler Has there been any progress on this. I am able to get the antenna height to record using the add gps metadata when using Quick Capture, but it does not work in Field Maps.

I am using Mock Location on an Android for quick capture with Trimble Mobile Manager and for Field Maps I let it open and control Mobile Manager.

Seems like if it works in Quick Capture it should also work in Field Maps.

Thanks
