My Green Location is showing in Ponta Delgada....
I have no devices there.
Taking an example from the Cisco docs : https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&a...
it doesn't look like there is a specific spec for the string format, so I guess it's left to the software to make a best guess assumption in correlation with Google Maps?

It ends up on the canary islands, which is where we put devices we can't find a location for.

Ok this is interesting! I figured out where I end up.... just off the coast off West Africa..... The closest places being Luanda and Congo? However, the actual Green Location Tag is showing in the North Atlantic just west of Portugal. It might be something to do with the String Interpreter?? Or perhaps something needs to be adjusted in the code?? I even tried adding the country but no go :-( Regards, Kaya On 04/23/2016 11:39 AM, Alasdair MacLeod wrote:
Ours is also locked at a random spot in the sea, but when I zoom out, I can see land. Perhaps your google maps part is broken? Maybe these are different issues? I enter the street address that I would use in google maps in the location on the SNMP settings for the devices, but this does not show the devices in the locations on Observium dashboard :/ Does anyone have an example syntax for a device they have working correctly?

It was working perfectly before the upgrade to the version of Observium OpenSource released this year. In fact my map just shows a blue screen now..... zooming out doesn't show land at all?

This way I can follow that as a template for all our devices.

If you enter a valid address on your device then Observium will map it properly. Any string that Google Maps can translate to a location will usually work :) /Markus Den 22 apr. 2016 6:00 em skrev "Alasdair MacLeod" <Alasdair@jhcs.com <mailto:Alasdair@jhcs.com>>: Hi Guys, On the main dashboard you see a google maps picture. None of my devices are displayed correctly on the map. How do I specify which devices appear where? I assume it’s to do with the Contact field.
