The geopoint

Hello, since last week, don´t show the map with teh mesage dont have de geopoint

Hola desde hace ya semanas, no se muestra los mapas y dice que no hay geopuntos o varibles y si existe

Igual no se presentan datos en mapas dont showm date in maps,

As noted above, the earlier bug has been fixed, and at present there are no known issues around displaying submission on the map. Could you perhaps provide a bit more info - eg screen shots of your data table (showing any geopoint data) and its associated map view - so that we might get a better idea of your issue.

Welcome to the community, @aalvareza! Can you confirm if your project has at least one geopoint question? BTW, which server are you using? This was an issue previously but it has now been resolved in our public servers.

Hello, yes my project has a one geopoint variable; this question in by default, since the sistemN my server is eu.

Hola si mi proyecto tiene una variable geopunto y es la del sistema, y trabajo bajo el servidor eu.kobo

of course; this is my geopoint

and display this with teh maps

I’ve also confirmed this (on Global). There appears to be a regression, as a form with only start-geopoint is now not getting picked up as being georeferenced, and as a result none of the submissions will show up on the map. I’m investigating and will report back when I know more.

Attn @Kal_Lam @jorcabrera

In the mean time, a potential workaround is to copy your start-geopoint to an explicit read_only geopoint question. This new geopoint question will successfully get picked up by the map, to then display your submission in the same location. And because it is read_only, the user cannot change the automatically acquired location (in Kobo Web Forms/Enketo). eg

(confirmed this works in both Enketo and KoboCollect)

@aalvareza, could you kindly provide me with the following details through a private message? Maybe we could have a closer look at your case?

  • Username
  • Project name
  • Server

You should be able to send me a private message as outlined in the post discussed previously:

Ok but, sendme your email

Thanks for reporting this.

I experienced something similar recently where the map stopped displaying correctly even though the geopoint field was still present in the form. In my case, rechecking the field configuration and map settings helped identify the issue.

It would be useful to know whether this started after a recent update or if any changes were made to the project before the problem appeared.
