I don't know if there's a best practice, but two options that come to mind:
* Bounding box and centrepoint (as with a map); this has the disadvantage that it covers a lot of area and none of the coordinates listed might actually be anywhere near the ones seen on the film! On the other hand, it's certainly best for, say, a long series of S-shaped sampling tracks back and forth. (I should know what these are called) * An arbitrary point (say, midpoint of track) with other coordinates listed - say, start, end, points of particular interest. I'm not immediately sure if anything picks up coordinates mentioned in the file description, but at least they're there for future use as and when such tools appear. Andrew.
