Description

Precise measurements of points are often done by leaving GPS in one location even for a couple of minutes, in order to get even higher accuracy by averaging individual location measurements over time. It would be good to have this supported in Input as well.

It should be possible to configure length of the interval for averaging.

There should be a new variable containing duration of the averaging, so that users can store that to an attribute when recording points.
