This project is similar to my last question. We conduct aerial surveys for different wildlife species, and need to be able to capture multiple attributes for one location (feature) at a time.
For example, we need to record a group size, ruggedness value, snow cover percentage, visual obstruction percentage, activity value, and species for one single location (record/feature). From what I can determine, Quick Capture is based on feature templates, so there is no way to record all these values for one feature. I would have to create a jumbled mess of feature templates for every combination of possibilities. See the attached picture for an example of how it would ideally work. Instead of each of those groups producing a new record, it would all record to one single record.
Is there a potential workaround for this?
Hopefully this makes sense. I look forward to any clarification.

Hi Samantha Nichols For an aerial survey, if you want to capture multiple variables for a single observation I would recommend Survey123 for ArcGIS Using the new image-map appearance you can embed within a form a big-button style UX if you like. I will be happy to discuss in more detail. My contact info is ichivite@esri.com
Hi,
Yes, I had the same issue. Luckily I really only had one other attribute that I needed to populate (WELL_TYPE), so I just created a new group for each subtype. I could see how the more attributes you need to capture, the more of a pain it would be.
But....if you need to capture so many different combinations of attrbutes, with lots of user input, I don't think that is what 'Quick' Capture was designed for. That sounds like more of a Collector type of application.
