I think the spreadsheet comparison would be a great idea. Some variance in the latitude/longitude could be allowed and then see what shakes out as locations not matched followed by some fine tuning as needed. If you decide to do this, let me know. I may be able to help. Perhaps we might end up with a first draft of the "known-to-be-correct" locations table and then formulate methods for proving each entry based on the number of users that claim a location is correctly geo-coded.

I regularly export my Legacy data in a gedcom to be imported into another software program, TNG , which is used to display my information online. I have a large number of locations that I have fine tuned their Geo-coded Long/Lat online in TNG. I can export the place name and the long/lat data from the online TNG into a spreadsheet. What would be the best way to compare that with what is stored in Legacy? I could probably use LTools and create a csv export (of the Legacy data) which then could be converted into a spreadsheet. Just wondering if anyone out there has gone down this road. Thanks in advance for any help with this.
