I have literally just recorded a video showing how to mark out a boundary in your XLSForm.... It's in the process of editing and will be released in the next couple of weeks! Maybe I'll release it next week so you can access it ASAP! Great question!
@@HumanitarianDataSolutions Thanks so much; I can't wait to see the video! :) my last question is, is it possible to collect the data on kobo (including GPS points type of questions) without an internet connection? because I might go to the field to collect the data with some tablets instead of phones.
@@_Hola_12 yes you absolutely can collect the GPS points while offline. Do some testing with your device just around your office or house to see how it works on your device and in your country, to make sure they're aren't any strange issues. But yes, this should work perfectly. The GPS usually depends on your device being visible to GPS satellites, so it doesn't depend on WiFi. Or sometimes it can be based on your location relative to phone signal towers, etc. But generally this should work. Let me know if it works for you!
I fully appreciate your time and efforts. I have one more issue which may not directly be related to the current presentation. Just want to know If at all I can use the Kobotool box to design and collect longitudinal data. Thanks
Great question. The app itself does not provide two-way syncing to the data collection device or questionnaire. So you're limited in how you can use or analyse or visualise prior data. You can of course design an ID that you incorporate into each questionnaire, so you can link the data from questionnaires over time into your post-processing. Hope this helps, message if you want to chat further!
Thanks for the video, please how can I configure my odk to use geoshape on it, i designed my form exactly the way you showed it on the video but it did not work.
HI! It's just not working for me. I've given permission to either ODK or Kobocollect but it keeps looking for the satellites. Google maps works fine, though. And my project is also ok on the web. I can't find what the problem might be.
@@HumanitarianDataSolutions Many times! Must be some problem with my phone, though. I tried with a different one and it did work. Thanks for your answer, I'm becoming your biggest fan, haha. I'm learning a lot.
A thumb up for you Jana
Very brilliant exercise, am enjoying your tutorial, keep up.
Thank you, you always make my working life easy

😂 😆 😝
We are learning and proud of you mom.
Great video. Thank you so much!
Oh thank you so much! Very welcome!
Thanks janna, relavant!
You're very welcome! Thank you for the kind comment :)
Thank You
Thanks 👍☺️
Hey there? Can you please point us towards the GIS video you mentioned at the end? Thank you!
cool video
very educative
thanks
thank you
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching! 📺
Hi! is it possible to establish in the form a boundary area from where people have to mark these points?

@@HumanitarianDataSolutions great! i will keep my eye on my notifications then :)

@hola amazing timing!
Love this channel.
What accuracy meters are recommended for collecting geopoints? Could you briefly explain the meaning of accuracy meters?

Always great tuto.
SO after collecting these data, how prepare it to make a shape line or polygone with Qgis or ArcGIS? Thank you to let me know.
How do i make the geopoint coordinates more accurate? To pinpoint exact location?
Thanks for the video, please how can I configure my odk to use geoshape on it, i designed my form exactly the way you showed it on the video but it did not work.
Nice video. Please where is that link to download the form?
is there a way to add boundaries to a geopoint question, for example the map would automatically show a certain neighborhood?
Hello, Ma'am
How can we hide gps question, but still take the location?
Thanks
how do i fill my geopoint fields( longitude, latitude, altitude ,accuracy ) through URL?
Hi Asish, can you explain a bit more what you're trying to do? What software are you using, and how you're collecting data?
Do you mean on the web form ?
is it possible to change the satellite layer?
HI! It's just not working for me. I've given permission to either ODK or Kobocollect but it keeps looking for the satellites. Google maps works fine, though. And my project is also ok on the web. I can't find what the problem might be.
Hmmm, have you tried re-installing ODK Collect?

Awww, thank you so much, what a nice message! I'm so sorry it didn't work on your phone, what kind of device are you using?
@@HumanitarianDataSolutions Xiaomi mia1!
How can i calcul a legnth of geotrace
That’s a very interesting question.
I don’t think KoboToolbox will ever be able to do that though.
