Overview

A location at which the data was gathered or about which the data is focused, in the form of a latitude-longitude point, a latitude-longitude quadrangle, and/or a place name.

Note: Due to a quirk of the DataCite spec, it is possible for a GeoLocation to be empty, with none of these present.
