Hi, I would like to know what approach should I use to implement 

a field or maybe 2 fields to set coordinates value using a google maps view.

 

So I can set a point in the google maps view and the latitude and longitude values

are set in those 2 fields.

 

I know grocery doesnt do this by default, so probably I will have to add some extra HTML and javascript or some sort to get those values and place them on the fields.

 

 

Thanks, grocery crud is great.

Hi Omar, you can just set up 1 field for coordinates, and 1 field for id, you can see my project here http://direktori.kopertis4.or.id, i'm using 1 field for coordinates and using Google Maps API v3, that is very nice library.

 

Thanks.
