Location
If the dataset has geo-located metadata associated with it this section will display a Google Map with the location indicated by a marker. If the extraction service did not find associated geo-location metadata you can manually set the location using the Set location link. This will open a pop-up dialog containing a Google Map. Click and drag to move the map and use your mouse's scroll wheel to zoom in or out. A single click on your desired location will place a marker at that point. If you placed the marker incorrectly you may click the marker to remove it or click another location on the map to move the marker to that location. To save the location click the close button.
It is currently impossible to edit locations using this method. Be sure your marker is placed correctly before closing the pop-up.
