Trip Reports Co-ordinates function
You might have noticed the two extra fields that are available below the text box when you go to post a trip report - latitude and longitide. If these are completed (correctly) then your trip report gets displayed on the Diving Directory map page. As part of the function of the diving directory is to build a world database of dive sites and dive destinations, your reports will help others find out more about places of interest.

To find the co-ordinates I have also included a map link (to a mini google map) and a co-ordinate conversion website to convert from degrees to decimal.

I am trawling through the database and am manually adding these for past trip reports of merit but it would help if you could, where possible, add these yourselves.

Next phase is to start on a worldwide wreck database

Can it be done retrospectively?

Sorry guys - no it can't be retrospective. I have done a number of your already. If you want ones added, PM me the titles and I'll do them (if you want to be REALLY helpful then you can look up the coords as well)

How long does it take to appear on the diving directory google map once the trip report (with co-ordinates) has been posted?

When I tick the Trip Reports box, I get an XML error "The XML response that was returned from the server cannot be processed". Only happens on Trip Reports, that I can make out.

Any thoughts?

TIA
Mal

I added to coordinates for my Trip report off Cies Islands off Spain but it didn't show up. I was careful with the coordinates, what did I do wrong?

Also, how does it know which country is it in, is this done automatically by the program recognising the coordinates?
