Collect Geolocation   

You can collect your respondent's geolocation by enabling this option in General Restrictions. The respondent's browser coordinates are captured from the first page of the survey, with their consent. In Reports, you can find the location details as respondent variables: country, location (latitude, longitude, and address). You will also find Zoho Maps and Google Maps links to the respondent's location in individual responses.
 
Enabling location access on your device (Mac, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android) allows Zoho Survey to capture geolocation data. If you prefer not to share your location, you can disable this at any time in your device settings. However, most applications, such as Maps and Photos, work best with location access enabled.
 
  1. Click General Restrictions on the left pane of the Publish tab.
  2. Select Geolocation. Read more on enabling location access on your device.
  3. Click Save.
            

Notes
Note:
The geolocation feature is not supported when distributing surveys via Facebook, in accordance with Facebook's security policy.
