Geography of organisms

The geographical position (using WGS84) of organisms can be captured related to the date to e.g. document a migration or the distribution of an organism. In the tree the geographical entries are symbolized with an icon as shown below.

To display the corresponding map activate Maps and click on the button. To edit an already existing geography use the GIS editor. If you add a new geographical position and there are already geographical positions available, these will be shown in the map. Remove them from the map and insert the new geography.
