British XY Coordinates

Anonymous User — Tue, 31 Jan 2017 17:12:48 GMT

Is it possible to get Survey123 to autopopulate (pull) geopoint data in a British XY format into a field?

I interpret that you want to take the Latitude/Longitude values from a geopoint question and calculate the corresponding XY values in a particular OS National Grid Reference. If that is the case, I would say the answer is no. The expressions you can use in XLSForms are not meant to support this type of calculations. I would recommend that you do the conversion in ArcGIS Desktop as a post-processing step.

Thehttps://community.esri.com/ideas/12624 idea may somewhat fit your needs (admittedly, two different things). Have a look at the idea in case that you want to vote for it or add some comments for consideration.

Thanks a lot!

Thanks, I did have a feeling that it is not yet possible to do so. The post processing step will would fine in this case.

Just wondering, is this still not possible? I've seen that you can do it for UTM coordinates (below), is there anything similar for BNG?

pulldata("@geopoint", ${Location}, "UTM.easting")
