Hi Thomas,

Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Our Italian Support agents are busy helping other Jotform users right now, so I'll try to help you in English using Google Translate, but you can reply in whichever language you feel comfortable using. Or, if you'd rather have support in Italian, let us know and we can have them do that. But, it might take a while until they're available again.

Now, coming back to your question, yes, Jotform supports capturing GPS coordinates through its Mobile Forms and various location widgets. You can use widgets like Location Coordinates, GPS Location, or Geolocation to collect accurate GPS data from the form users.

Here’s how to add GPS location to your form:

1. Click on Add Form Element in the Form Builder.
2. Go to the Widgets tab and search for location or GPS Location.
3. Select and configure the widget that fits your needs. Here, I added Geolocation, but you can choose which widget you prefer. You need to add a Google Maps API key.
4. Click on the Update button on the lower-right once done.

You can obtain a Google Maps API Key by following the instructions provided by Google here. Also, ensure the API key allows requests from Jotform domains by setting proper HTTP referrer restrictions in your Google Cloud Console.

Once set up, the widget will capture the GPS coordinates of the points marked by the operator, which is perfect for geolocating manholes or other specific locations.

Give it a try and let us know how it goes.
