QS:Location mapservice

Use mapping service (location_mapservice)

Description

If this option is activated, then the short free text will display a map and not a text box (they cannot be used both together concurrently).

  If the question design involves the display of a map, leave the defaultRows blank. Placing a number in the respective field (such as 0 or 1) removes the map from the generated HTML code, causing other errors.

Available options

• Off (default)
• OpenStreetMap via MapQuest
• Google Maps

If the Google Maps option is selected and the question is set to mandatory, the respondent must move the red point or enter the geographical data in the latitude/longitude textbox. The user cannot rely on the default values and hit the "Next" button. It is highly recommended to advise the users about this beforehand in the question text.
