Adding a GPS Pin to a Project
Published by Luis De Almeida in DRPRO Tips & Tricks · Thursday 23 May 2024
As from DRPRO 2024.1, you can now add a GPS Pin to a project and include a live link to the project location on Google Maps on the transmittal itself. Here are the easy steps to implement this new feature:
- Open the Project Entry Form
- Open Google Maps on https://google.com/maps
- Right-click your mouse at the centre of your project location
- Left-click on the coordinates as shown in the image below
- Paste the coordinates into the GPS Coords field in the Project Entry Form
- Also specify a Zoom Level by moving the slider horizontally
- The Zoom Level specified will dictate the initial Zoom on Google Maps
- Click on the Red Pin Test button to verify
- Adjust the Zoom level if required and test again
- Click Save when you're happy with the results
- Click on the Red Pin on the main Project List to display it on Google Maps
- Rinse and repeat for each project on your list!
