I like the Crowdsource story map. However we want to use it for making observations in the field. Is it possible to get the location as latitude/longitude coordinates instead an address? Sometimes addresses don’t make sense. That’s what we need as a Conservancy protecting land.

Hello -- The crowdsource app accepts lat/long values from contributors, but will reverse geocode them to make them more friendly for most readers. The only way to show a lat/long would be to download the app, customize it, and host it yourself.
