New types of columns can now be defined in the respondents database. These include:

  • GPS - coordinates in the decimal "latitude, longitude" format
  • Address - street address data, in the "street, number, post code, city" format

To improve the accuracy of location search by address, it is important to ensure the correct format of the entered data (as defined above). Omitting such words, as "ul." or "Street", will ensure much better results, so we recommend you to use "Słoneczna 10" instead of "ul. Słoneczna 10".

In the case of villages without named streets, you should enter "village, house number, postal code, village".

Geographic coordinates are verified so as to ensure that correct values are entered and the correct format is kept.

Apart from facilitating the execution, introduction of this distinction allows points locations to be displayed on the map directly in the SCU.

The preview is available in key parts for CAPI surveys execution, e.g., distribution of starting points, address database control or management.

If the exact location on a map cannot be determined, the corresponding message will be displayed:
