Hey Blair,
What do you mean with add it to google for better reference?

if you click on the geocode button you will see a description of the function.

basically when you import entries from sobi2 they don't have any coordinates, but they have the street address. We need coordinates to show the markers on the map, so we query the google service - give it the street address and it returns a guess what the coordinates for this street address are.

Cheers,
Daniel
