Why are latitude and longitude values switched on my photos
Using the code Latitude: ${Photo_P | getValue:"y"} Longitude: ${Photo_P | getValue:"x"} I added latitude and longitude values on my report for the photos and noticed that the latitude value came back negative for a northern hemisphere photo. I checked the photo properties and noticed the longitude was a positive number; as the photo georeferences correctly, there must be some data referencing that it is a west or negative value. I also noticed that the values were switched when displaying them in Survey123.
Why does my latitude come back negative on the report?
Why are the values switched in Survey123?

This is odd. It appears that the latitude value is flipped on your report. I can't see the direction on the photo properties. Latitude in the northern hemisphere is positive, while longitude in the western hemisphere is negative. To check myself, I searched Google for SLC latitude and got 40.7608° N, 111.8910° W or (40.7608, -111.8910).
The Survey123 website is wrong but in a different way. -109 latitude does not exist and 40 longitudes would put you in Europe. I replicated this issue on one of my own surveys with a photo from Baltimore, MD. Shot on an iPhone. The reported Lat/Long is in Antarctica.
Looks like a bug!
