Guidelines
[KCP Comments: should we add something like this?:
- The elevation should be expressed in meters. If the label does show it in a different unit, convert to meters using a converter such as: http://www.metric-conversions.org/
- If there is only one elevation recorded (i.e. 855 m), enter "855 m" in both fields "minimumElevationInMeters" and "maximumElevationInMeters"]
