Geotagging your content, working with geo-layers

It’s very easy to add geographical identification metadata (i.e. Geotagging) to your content. While creating or editing posts, just add the address to the ‘Geolocation’ field. Examples could be ‘Paris, France’, or more detailed, ‘Rue Duquesnoy 7 Brussels Belgium’. After saving, your post will automatically be geotagged. If you check the box below the ‘Geolocation’ field, the content becomes a ‘Geobject’ and will NOT be displayed on your blog as a post. It will only be viewable through the map interface.
Now how can you view your geotagged items on a map? Easy, there are two ways. First, check out our geo-layers section. There you can view the most recently created posts that are geotagged, but a lot more is possible. Try the example links you find at the bottom of each map and you see the flexibility of the system.
