Has anyone found a way to review large numbers of Place Location Geo-Coded
placement without having to do one location at a time?


I have almost 10,000 places and  I am constantly finding Geo -Code errors.

For example I have two locations in my list

Alban, South Dakota                      44.4361381666667
-100.230491666667
Alban, Grant, South Dakota             44.6187705555556   -89.2845230555556

Yes, these should be merged, but they make a great example here

Legacy Geo-coded the them as listed above.

The first one, Alban, South Dakota  points to center of the state and has
the same coordinates that is used by the state generic South Dakota
44.4361416666667   -100.230451111111

In other words the geo coding did not find the correct place except to
place the pin at the center of the state, which would be OK IF there was
some disclaimer or notation somewhere.


The second one is geo-coded to  Alban, Portage County, WISCONSIN

Why, is Geo coding setting wrong places??

(According to Google the coordinates for Alban, South Dakota
are 45.1952395,-96.546404)


With no tool to at least review the places in some sort of batch (like
maybe 25 places on a page each with a small map of the geo-coded place.

At least then I might have picked up that one of these was pointing to
wisconsin and not South Dakota.


One at a time review is just not a viable option.


Anyone have any workable solutions?

Thanks in advance for any help.
