How to create more other fields?

[GreenHere]

Hello,

I am relatively new to Itrees. I want to combine fields of the Neighbourwoods program into ITREES on my PDA. There are about 10 fields I want to combine in, but only 3 "Other" fields. How do I create more user defined fields?

Hello,

The Streets program is not designed to allow for creating additional data fields. Therefore, you are limited to working with the (3) "Other" fields provided.

Please keep in mind that i-Tree Streets is essentially an assessment tool designed to determine ecosystem services for community trees and therefore it does have flexibility & functionality built in for managing trees on a daily or more frequent basis.

Best regards,
Al

Green,

The "other" tabs have been okay and should work with what you are trying to accomplish if I understand you correctly.

I'm pretty sure there is a "not" missing in this sentence, i.e.: "...it does not have...."

You might want to consider collecting the remaining "other" fields on a paper form, making sure to include the same ID number for each record, then combine them manually with exported iStreets data later in a spreadsheet. When I need to do this, I avoid the iStreets PDA app and use different PDA software, as I described in another post.
