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
This is available in the 26.2 release of Field Maps. In order to capture this you'll need to add some additional GPS metadata fields, which are automatically added when creating a new feature layer in Field Maps Designer and enabling GPS metadata. This support will also be added to the Add GPS Metadata GP tool in an upcoming ArcGIS Pro release.
For existing feature layers or feature classes you can use one of the Python notebooks available on GitHub.
