Hi, I don't know if this has been covered before but I think that it would be a valuable addition to the Opus Locations if they could incorporate a Google map. As I'm sure you know, the scale can be varied so a reader could see where the location was in a country, perhaps also with the tags showing where the other Opus locations are in that country, and then zoom in to see exactly where the location is and how to get there.
If you want to see examples of what I mean, I suggest that you go to:
www.xeno-canto.org/ and look up any species and you will find what sound clips are available for that species and where they are located in different countries. GlobalTwitcher has also implemented a similar mapping system so you can record the location of your twitch/record (although not everyone uses it).
I have no idea how difficult it would be to introduce this but I feel that it would be a really valuable addition to Opus locations.
Regards, Pete
