Good morning to all.

1. What is the issue? Please be detailed.
Is there any way to measure distance between two geo tag points using road or path to be travelled?

2. What steps can we take to reproduce this issue?
I have two geo points in which I want to measure the travel distance between the two points with the existing road or path.

4. Upload any test forms, screenshots, or logs below.
Using ODK distance()

Unfortunately this is not possible within only ODK Collect.

A developer might be able to create something using the function to launch an external app from Collect, pass the external app the coordinates, and receive back the travel distance. But this could be quite complex to build.
