## Custom Location

{% hint style="info" %}
This section may not be available for all users, it is a Site configuration. If you do not have access to this section, this may be for a reason.
{% endhint %}

This setting allows you to enter a custom Latitude and Longitude to simulate being in another location. This can be useful when training or simulating conditions in one location from another.

{% hint style="info" %}
A custom location will affect your default location in maps throughout the system.
{% endhint %}

To set a Custom Location:

1. Enter a decimal value for the Latitude into the **Latitude** box
2. Enter a decimal value for the Longitude into the **Longitude** box

{% hint style="info" %}
The format of the values entered into these fields is important otherwise it will not work.

It should just be decimal numbers and an optional negative prefix in Latitude for South or Longitude for West.

Do not include the degrees symbol, quotes or direction suffix.

The location for Sydney, for example, would entered as be **Latitude** -33.8688 and **Longitude** 151.2093.

You can obtain accurate Latitude and Longitude values for locations through applications like Google Maps.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cw.crisisworks.com/concepts-and-fundamentals/on-a-computer/your-user-profile-and-duties/diagnostics.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
