Funny how they say this is easy, but I've been at it all afternoon and
nothing works like it's supposed to. Files that are supposed to be .exe
aren't. I tried installing the generic version, but there is not setup file
to run.
Giving up.

I need to update an existing form that has data submissions. I know I
have
done this before and as long as I am not adding any new data fields it
should be possible. But with that said I can not figure out how to do
it.
I though you just keep the form name the same and changed the form_id
to
something new and it replace the existing form on the server and kept
all
the data submission intact.

Any help would be great.

Thanks
Andy

Photo direction included in ODK?

Dear all,

I am wondering, if the direction of an image beeing taken can also be
captured additional to the coordinates by ODK collect?

Thanks,

Gernot

Gernot,

Not directly, but there is a compass widget.

I guess Gernot is talking about geo-tagging. I think the coordinate
can be
captured by the camera app used to take pictures. I've done this using
Android native camera app (by Google). In our yet to release version
of our
survey app (based on ODK Collect of course), we support built-in
camera
app, which is capable of taking coordinate as well.

I used a search function e.g. search('cmis2014', 'matches', 'village',
${village}) which worked fine the first time. My latest revisions on
the
same form without affecting the search function gives a runtime error
"Syntax error in search () function..." All these happen after I
updated my
ODK Version currently to 1.4.3. I have even loaded the same example
provided in the opendatakit.org examples page
<
http://opendatakit.org/downloads/download-info/sample-searchandselect-form/>
site
but get the same error (see image attached). Could the syntax have
changed
for later versions or it is no longer supported.

neil jerson de los santos baraflgu@gmail.com Jul 22 10:48AM +0200

Good Day All!

I`m Neil of Tacloban City Philippines and working on coming up a
household
level survey.

I have just started on some questions using the XLSForm, based on the
reference got online.

We would like to ask help on some issues for us to come up a mobile
survey
using mobile device.

The survey covers the household and members basic information. There
are
sets of questions that will be repeated ask to each of the member, it`s
about 20 questions.

We would like to adopt the format below for the database.

Example:
In Household Number 1, there are 3 household member.
In Household Number 2, there are 2 household member.

HouseholdNumber MemberID MemberSurname
MemberFirstName Q1 Q2 Q3 .....Q20
1 1 Member1_Surname
Member1_FirstName M1_A1 M1_A2 M1_A3 .....M1_A20
1 2 Member2_Surname
Member2_FirstName M2_A1 M2_A2 M2_A3 .....M2_A20
1 3 Member3_Surname
Member3_FirstName M3_A1 M3_A2 M3_A3 .....M3_A20
2 1 Member1_Surname
Member1_FirstName M1_A1 M1_A2 M1_A3 .....M1_A20
2 2 Member2_Surname
Member2_FirstName M2_A1 M2_A2 M2_A3 .....M2_A20

In the set of questions I'm working on. I have following questions for
this.

  1. What is the Assigned Household Number?
  2. How many members are there in the household?
  3. What is the member`s Surname?
  4. What is the member`s Surname?
    5...... Q1 - Q20

Is this possible in the ODK? How will I code it in the XLSForm to adopt
the above format?

Thanks in advance!

God bless.

Hi Neil,

It will be easy to have this format by inserting in a « begin repeat...
end repeat » structure all the questions you want to ask for the
households members . The memberId must be the « calculate type» and in
the field 'calculation' you must put this function "position (..)" to
assure that memberID start with the number 1 for each household and
this
will be handle by the system.

type name label

begin repeat houshold Household members

calculate MemberID Household number

end repeat

I hope this wil help you

Dear Shreya,

If you are planning to use STATA please do have a look at odkmeta. If
you
search in the group you will find the necessary links. Its a STATA
module
that proved to be invaluable for importing data from the ODK output
files.
Its relatively simple to use; I've used it myself for a dataset from a
350+
question household survey of 1400 respondents. If you plan on using
multiple response questions (select multiple type) you might want to
look
at the STATA modules mrdum and mrtab as well.

Warm Regards
