Hello,
thanks for this fantastic project! But I have a question: Is it possible to calculate speed server side? My devices does not report the speed. So I am thinking of using computed attribute to calculate it. Just from current position, previous position and time delta. Is it possible? And if so how can I access the previous position and time delta in the expression of computed attributes? The doc mentions only latitude and longitude primitive objects which as I understand is current position.
If computed attributes cannot be used for this can you propose different solution please?
Well I have read somewhere on this forum that speed attribute cannot be changed. But it is perfectly fine for me to store the calculated speed into different named attribute. Also a rough accuracy is fine for me.
thanks much for any help

You cannot use computed attributes to access previous position. You would have to modify the code.
