Hello, I’d like to add a satellite view in my geopoint question.

Welcome back to the community @paani! Maybe you could have a look at the post discussed previously (is should solve your issue):

Is it possible to make a satellite view for geotrace or geoshape question types?

Hi @marceloscarone, Yes, this can be done in KoBoToolbox for different question types viz. geopoint, geotrace and geoshape, and the process is same for all the three question types.

Hello @paani
Sorry, late add-on.
You may give them two QR codes, to use in direct sequence:

• The first only “opening” with the admin password.
• The second doing the changes and setting again the password (or a new one).

Another option, if not yet data collected.

• Deinstall and reinstall Collect ((offering the default without password)
• Configure with new QR.

My colleague faced the same issue as you. He got acquainted with a huge amount of information.

It says Users can easily add a satellite view to a geopoint by selecting the desired imagery from the available sources and downloading it in the required format. I think you will be interested to read.
