Set Custom Geo-locator Search

ChristineSeidel — Tue, 08 Sep 2020 00:35:35 GMT

Hi - I've seen the various posts describing how to use a custom map from AGOL within Survey123 and I'm wondering if a custom geolocator can be applied to that AGOL basemap and used within the Survey123 App?

In my area, the default ESRI geocoder used for addresses isn't very accurate. So, if I could replace that geocoder with a field value from my assessing data, it would provide better results.

I anticipate many residents would have trouble finding their property on a map. So, if they could just enter their address to pin the location, that should provide more reliable results.

Thanks,

-Chris

Hi Christine,

The Survey123 field and web apps will use the geocodes that are configured with your organization; you can select which one to use in the field app. See Geopoints—ArcGIS Survey123 | Documentation . Note that for public surveys, only the ArcGIS World Geocoder will be available as that is a known public geocoder.

@JamesTedrick So, for all public surveys, the public can only use the ArcGIS World Geocoder and not an organization's locator that is public? If I wanted the public to be able to search for a park name from our locator, they cannot do so?

Might this ability be possible in the future?

@JamesTedrick is this statement above from @ArmstKP correct?
