Identify changes (during edit) in a submission

[rahmat]

Dear colleagues,

We are collecting huge data from field and realized the the enumerators are using some external software to change the GPS locations (reported that they do survey from a specific location instead of HH level).
Is there any way to identify such changes once submitted? Or, can we find out which forms are edited after once they are finalized?
Thank you
