+<h2>Process</h2>
+<p>
+  This page follows directly on from creating a new cave. If you haven't read thos pages, please go back and do so.</p>
+</p>
+<h3>Two ways of creating a new entrance in the online system</h3>
+<ul>
+  <li>Filling in the online form</li>
+  <li>Editing a file and uploading it</li>
+</ul>
+<p>exactly analogously to creating a new cave.</p>
+
+  <h2>Recommended procedure</h2>
+
+  <p>
+    As with a cave, you will find the process a lot easier to follow if you Edit an existing entrance first.
+  </p>
+
+   <h3>Edit Entrance form</h3>
+   <p>New in 2021 are fields for the latitude and logitude (WGS84 - the same as your GPS displays). These should be entred in degrees with decimals for fractions of a degree, e.g. 42.357 not 42 degress 21 minutes 25 seconds, or 42 degrees 21.42 minutes.
+   <p>In previous decades the location of an entrance was the <em>output</em> of a whole lot of surveying and position fixing (e.g. see <a href="lasers.htm">laser points</a>). Today, the location of an entrance is available by GPS at the <em>beginning</em> of the process. So we have these fields to record the data. [We don't yet have the code to automatically add these to the <var>essentials.gpx</var> download to be used for prospecting though.]
