Instructions to report the location of an AED

Finding GPS (latitude and longitude) information:

1. Open your Google Maps or Apple Maps app;

2. Click on the "locator" icon - this icon looks like a little arrow head pointing to about 1 o'clock.

3. Once you have clicked on this icon, it will place a blue dot at your location. Click and hold on the blue dot to place a "pin" at that point.

4. In Apple Maps, it will then open up a pop-up window with a picture of a map inside of it.

5. Click on this window - not the "send my location" window.

6. This will open a window at the bottom of the screen with the Address and Coordinates details that look like (26.634311 E, 153,0973546 S - ie. latitude first, longitude second).  Enter these into the latitude and longitude fields (without the S and the E at the end, and with a "-" in front of the latitude details) where requested.
