Hi there, I was wondering if there was a way to take the GPS coordinate accuracy (± X meters) and populate a field based level of accuracy that the survey was collected at. The location of the point is critical to the success of our survey and knowing if or which point is less accurate is important for our data collection. Is there a way to do this in Survey123 or is this something that may be added in future updates of the survey?

Hi Stephanie,

thanks for your input. While the user of the field app can see the location accuracy as reported by the device, and the author of the Survey can force the accuracy_threshold parameter, it is not possible at this moment to persist the actual position accuracy of the location captured.

The new ArcGIS Ideas site was released today, so I went ahead and give it a go: https://community.esri.com/ideas/12080  Please add your comments and vote/unvote as you see fit!

Thanks,

Ismael
