Ability to enter eastings/northings and/or latitude/longitude and locate on map

Ability to enter eastings/northings and/or latitude/longitude and zoom to location on map. As an example, this is required for street lighting as this information is provided by developers when new columns are installed and would ensure the assets in Alloy are created in the correct location

    All coordinates are held in Alloy in (Lat-Long) GeoJson format. When adding a new asset, the map can be used to roughly place the asset and then the GeoJson can be edited using the Edit option from the circular hamburger menu in the bottom right of the map. The exact Lat-Long coordinates can then be entered in editor.

    We do not currently support entry of geometry using other spatial coordinates such as BNG Eastings and Northings as these would require additional transformations prior to saving as GeoJson.
