Updates to Cemetery and Geography Location Services
Mark posted a blog entry in Find a Grave,
Last week we rolled out a large update to the Location Service on Find a Grave. The majority of the update involved the administrative back end. However, there are a few changes to the member facing side. The biggest change is the update to the Add a Cemetery work flow. You will now be required to search first before the option to add a cemetery is shown. We hope this helps to reduce the number of duplicated cemeteries.
After clicking Add Cemetery, the Name and Location fields will be filled in automatically with what was entered in the previous search page. From here you may update the name and/or location, Set the GPS and Address using the map, enter GPS manually without the help of the map and include a description. These are the basics of creating a cemetery.
However, we have added more functionality to the page. You can now add cemetery aliases and names in other languages if appropriate.
You can add more Details including street address in another language and an expanded location selection.
Other options include contact information, status, and additional information.
