Currently, the Coordinate Conversion widget in Experience Builder only converts Lat-Long coordinates into different notations, but can't convert coordinates into a different projected coordinate system.
I would like users to be able to input a set of coordinates in one coordinate system (e.g. Lat-Long) and get coordinates in another projected coordinate system (for example NZTM 2000 / EPSG 2193) and vice versa. The tool should be configurable to allow for coordinates for many projections to be converted.
Agreed. For my applications, only being able to see various versions of Lat/Lon makes this widget pretty useless.
Excellent idea
This would be really useful for my work also! Fingers crossed.
Absolutely agree this is required. Would also highlight the following confusion between the two coordinate widgets available in AGOL Experience Builder:
Arguably, the former does a better job of 'conversion' but in a not very useful manner. The latter is conversion in a limited sense only and actually more useful as a coordinate pinning function (IMO).
Using both widgets does allow an extremely fudgy conversion: pin point with 'conversion' widget; click pin to get the (approximate) conversion with the non-conversion widget. I'm not recommending that - just highlighting how un-intuitive the split across two widgets is. Solution: combine them into one.
Hi! This seems like a good enhancement for the coordinate widget. I'd suggest logging in a support case. Thank you.
