Re: Tracker: capture coordinates

 

Yes,  can have value type coordinate for both attributes and data elements.

This allows you to record coordinate at the time of tracked entity instance
registration and also during data entry for program stages. You can decide
where and how many coordinates to record - this depends on how many
attributes and/or data elements of type coordinate that you have defined.

One thing you need to keep in mind is, we do not have yet a means to
visualize these coordinates in our mapping tool. But we can start with
recording...
