There are numerous options for entering geospatial data into a field report. These options include:
*Entering the data manually
*Drawing on the map
*Importing data from a spreadsheet

To manually add geospatial data for a point:
<ol>
<li>From the Field Report Editor window, click the [[Image:PencilBtn.png]] button.</li>
:The Point and Polygon/Polyline List window displays.
<li>From the Point and Polygon/Polyline List window:</li>
<ol type="a">
<li>Select the coordinate reference system that you would like to use from the Coordinate System list.</li>
<li>Select the coordinate format from the Coordinate Format list.</li>
<li>Follow the procedures detailed in the ''How to manually add a geospatial point'' section on page 98.</li>
