Coordinates

Post by Myriam D » Sun Mar 28, 2010 5:35 pm

I would like the ability to load the geo coordinates by hand.
As it is, I had saved them using Google maps. and have lost them for some places because Google turned out not to load them and filled coordinates as zero.

I will look into this. I&#39d prefer to fix the google maps problem rather than create a manual entry option.

Hi Warwick,

anything new with the Google Maps problem. Actually Google Maps loads the map (picture) but not the coordinates. Have Google changed the API?

Regards from Germany

My day job is as a cartographer, of sorts, I will have some progress soon.

4 years now and still no solution to my problem.
The wish to be able to fill in manually remains.
