	Maps allow to indicate with precision the location of observed individuals. To do so, move the map by ~~slidding~~ your finger over the screen until the red marker sits on the correct position. Use '''+''' and '''-''' signs to zoom in and out and better identify landmarks. Choose your ~~prefered~~ cartographic layer at the top left corner (see image). The cartographic layer showing by default will be determined by your settings. Go to Menu > Preferences > Cartographic layer to change it (see wiki section [[Getting_started_NaturaList#Cartographic_layer\| Mobile interface > Getting started > Preferences > Cartographic layer]]).<br/>		Maps allow to indicate with precision the location of observed individuals.

	Notice the smiley on the screen. When the GPS finds your position, the smiley becomes yellow, otherwise, it remains grey. Use the "'''aim'''" icon to prompt the GPS to get your location or refresh it. It is especially ~~usefull~~ when, to save battery, your device does not get your position ~~continously~~, or when you are moving fast, for example when surveying from a bicycle. When using this icon, not only the GPS will read your position but will automatically center your ~~posiiton~~ in the map, but you can still move it if your current position is not that of the individual you are reporting. Note if the distance between your position (smiley) and that of the record (red marker) is greater than 3 km, you will be asked to confirm. See at the top left area the precision of your gps reading at any time. <br/>

SUMMARY: If you can read a map and are certain of the correct cursor position: 
1. Choose cartographic layer. 
2. Zoom in or out for good visualisation. 
3. Place the red mark where your data take place and click '''Next'''. 
If you are unsecure about your position on the map: 
A. Prompt GPS to find your position. 
B. Wait for smiley to become yellow. 
C. If your position and GPS precision make sense do steps 1 to 3 above.
