Use the Geo-Fencing Feature for Media Capture

This document explains how to use the geo-fencing feature for the media capture field in URVA forms. This feature allows you to specify a radius around a location where image capture is allowed, providing more control over media collection.

Follow the steps mentioned below to enable it:
  1. Access the Activity form from Activities under Admin Settings  from where you want to implement geo-fencing for media capture.
  2. Under Add-Ons, go to Location Checks. Click on Geo Fence on Media tab. 
  3. Select the Stage on which geo fence will be configured. Use the toggle switch to turn the geo-fencing feature On or Off.
  4. Select the Media fields to enable geo fence and then choose the source field of address- Contact Address or Form Address. Then select the respective address field.
  5. Now you will see an option to define the radius around the location. Enter a custom radius for the geo-fence.
  6. When geo-fencing is enabled, media capture is restricted within the defined geo-fence area.
  7. If someone tries to capture media outside the allowed area, the system will display an error message: "Media capture is restricted to the planned location only.

Key Points to Remember

  • Default Settings: Geo-fencing is set to Off by default.
  • Customization: You can enable or disable the geo-fencing feature as needed and adjust the radius to fit your requirements.
  • Error Handling: The system will prevent media capture outside the defined area and show a relevant error message.
