Hi all,

The developer documentation has been updated:

http://digitalnz.org/developer/api-docs/search-records/
http://digitalnz.org/developer/api-docs/custom-search-records/
http://digitalnz.org/developer/api-docs/get-metadata/

Includes documentation for the new geo_co_ords field which allows you
to build googlemaps style interfaces like:

Please let me know if you have any queries or suggestions for the
documentation.

Cheers

Great point. I will add this to the docs.

To only return results that are geotagged, add to your search string:

geo_co_ords:[* TO *]

eg searching for geotagged turtles would be a search for

turtles geo_co_ords:[* TO *]

remember to url encode it.

Cheers

Elliott.
