Musical Geography Project

If the data needs to be updated in the spreadsheet, the data will have to be re-uploaded to ArcGIS Online to see the changes. 

Tips for finding Lat/Long coordinates:

• Google Search! Typing in: " [Place name] latitude and longitude"
  • This is a really quick way to find lat/long coordinates - keep in mind that if the numbers are West or South, they will need a negative in front of the number.
• Get Lat Long from Address Converter
• Stephen P. Morse Converting Address to/from Latitude/Longitude in One Step

ArcGIS can also find locations by place name, but the locations will be more accurate with lat/long. Addresses will also work to place points on the map.

While working on your project - do you have questions about the tools or seeing a tech issue?
