Hi there, I have a few map-related questions I came across whilst gathering field data. (1) After setting a new sample point, I wanted to confirm the coordinates that were found by the arena mobile app. Can I use any other map than google maps for visualising the location of my sample points? The reason being that google maps does not provide detailed information outside urban areas. Openstreetmap for instance would be very useful here, ideally as an offline map, also to navigate through the field. (2) As I am often conducting fieldwork in mountainous terrains, I am sometimes confronted with poor satellite coverage, which may lead to poor localisation. Given a wrong localisation, can I manually move a sample point on a map to the correct spot? I found the option of changing the coordinates, which only helps, if one knows the (usually unknown) coordinates. (3) I found a map in the Open Foris plattform showing the location of the sample points I visited in the forest. Can I likewise see a map in the arena mobile app, too? This would facilitate the cooperative fieldwork in our team a lot as this way I can see the sample points my colleagues or me have already visited and vice versa. I’m sorry, if these questions have already been posted. Thanks heaps in advance for your help. |
