<p>This photo does not have GPS coordinates in the EXIF data as the camera was close inside the entrance and could not get a GPS fix. This is what we need photos of entrances from several distances, so that the more distant one does have a good GPS fix embedded in the photo.
<p>The weird punching mistakes on this tag and the fact that the identifier "1623-148" does not appear exactly in that form is why we <em>also</em> need to record <em>exactly</em> the text that actually appears on the tag - to help resolve ambiguities in future. This happened for real for <a href="/expofiles/surveyscans/2014/2014%2324/notes1-14-NP-01.jpg">2014-NP-01 (CUCC-745)</a> which got confused with 2012-NP-14 because "2014" was written as just "14".
