is there any way to avoid fake gps location , as we found some of our team members were manipulating location data by installing Fake GPS applications in Android phones.
is there any way that we can avoid such apps location and Kobo Collect should use actual location of Mobile.
Further can we stop using two mobiles with same id
With the GPS question type you should be able to collect latitude, longitude, altitude and accuracy. Kindly please ensure if the accuracy is low enough or if it’s greater than 5m.
Please file ODK Collect feature requests in the forum features category and post suspected bugs as support requests also on the forum. That lets developers do initial triage in the open and allows and other community members see the approach taken. In this case, it’s almost certainly something that would have to be handled at the Collect level, not in JavaRosa so we really appreciate it if you don’t go straight to filing an issue unless you intend to also submit a patch.
@caneeraj, all you need to do is the following steps to get a fake location:
Install any fake location app that is compatible with your device.
Open the app and then set your device to a fake location from the recently installed app.
Open Collect android app.
Start collecting GPS data. Your device should be able to collect data point with accuracy 0.
Once you have the accuracy 0 collected by your device you will need to understand that the device has used a fake location as it is not possible to collect a GPS data with accuracy 0.
