Storing datetime when capturing geotrace in ODK Collect

Support
1

Hi everyone,

Currently when capturing a geotrace pattern the following information is stored (if I'm not mistaken):
latitude, longitude, altitude, GPS accuracy

Would it be possible to also store the datetime for every GPS coordinate that is captured? Could someone maybe give me some pointers on where to look in the code to add this functionality myself?

Many thanks!

Hi @stokstaart

such an option is not implemented in ODK Collect.
If you are a developer you can fork our repo and implement required changes. Probably there are a few options to achieve your goal. One of them would be editing GeoPointData (but it's in Javarosa) or maybe trying something different like collecting datetimes using a separate csv file (something similar to out timing log).
