Prerequisites for interviewing with a GPS question
The following prerequisites need to be in place before working with GPS questions in interviews.
Personal interviewing requires a GPS location sensor that supports the Windows Sensor and Location Platform.
Some GPS devices do not support the location API. It might be necessary to download and install a sensor driver to make the GPS device available as a location sensor.
Some sensor drivers provide a simulation mode that can be used for testing when a GPS device is not available.
