Locations Editor

The Locations Editor is a window for managing the shared library of locations used across your studies. Each location supplies the coordinates and the time zone that anchor event calculations, so maintaining a reusable list saves you from re-entering the same place for every study.

Each location has a Name, Latitude, Longitude, and Height, edited directly in the table. The bottom bar provides Add, Delete, and Save, and Close dismisses the window.
