ICP's integration with Google's mapping system relies on the use
of latitude and longitude values to determine and pinpoint your
property. This page explains how to get these values using a simple
technique.
Other companies use a street address for integration and while
we will as a secondary mode because street addresses are often very
long and industrial estates or retail parks cover large areas we
prefer to use these values to improve the quality of service we
offer.
Step 1.
Open Google Earth in your web browse: http://maps.google.com
Step 2.
Find your location or enter a location and click Search ( e.g. Galway,
Ireland ).
In this example we will find Danerb New Vision Ltd., Dalys Place,
Eyre Street, Galway, Ireland.
I have located the address and switched to Satellite view.

Step 3.
Right click on the exact location of the building. Select the option
'Center on Map' from the drop-down menu.

Step 4.
Place the following code in the URL Bar in your browser;
javascript:void(prompt('',gApplication.getMap().getCenter()));
Press the Enter or Return key on your keyboard.

A Prompt will appear displaying the coordinates.

Step 4 (b) - Temporarily Allow Prompt Appears?
If the browser ask you to Temporarily Allow this action then select
Ok. Repeat Step 4 again this time the Temporarily Allow prompt will
not appear (if you have allowed the action by pressing Ok earlier).

Step 5.
Select the values, copy them and past these into your Submit Property
Listing input fields.

For Example: Values in the prompt are equal to;
(53.275113283522536, -9.052707552909851)
Therefore;
Latitude Value is: 53.275113283522536 (shortened version 53.27511)
Longitude Value is: -9.052707552909851 (shortened version
-9.052708)
Note: values can be positive or negative.
