How can I get a map of any location specified by its latitude and longitude? I am a new user of mapping toolbox. How can I get a map of any location specified by its latitude and longitude?

MathWorkers are really dedicated. One guy is even working on his laptop in his car, while waiting to turn on to Route 9 from Apple Hill Road. :-) I've noticed a few other funny glitches in the map. Sometimes those in the Western hemisphere will forget to add the minus sign, placing their logo in remote areas in Western China, when their Community Profile lists a location in the US. Perhaps it would be a good idea to show the user his or her map location when the latitude/longitude is added to their profile. You could even check the location of the IP, and ask for confirmation if the location and the latitude/longitude are off by 10,000 miles. Wow … MathWorkers are really dedicated.

I nudged my location to something more precise (it appeared to be floating in the sea), but it hasn't shown yet. The map feature is really nice; only one question: how often is it updated?
