Re: [Dhis2-devs] Use Google streets maps to capture coordinates
Thanks Abyot. For our system, Google maps was very helpful as it had many
local places marked. Never needed the search function. Anyway, any plans to
allow users to select the background map when capturing in future versions?
Or is it possible to do a code level modification for us to achieve it?
Regards
Pramil
