Description
For both the Mint DOI and Update DOI Record functions, push geographic coordinate data from the DAMS record to the EZID record.
Point
In the DAMS, points are listed as a pair of values: latitude, longitude. EZID has a separate labeled field for each of these values.
Line
In the DAMS, I believe a line is indicated by two pairs of latitude-longitude values. In EZID, I suspect a line can be indicated in the Polygon field, but I'm not certain.
Polygon
In the DAMS, a polygon is represented by a series of latitude-longitude pairs. In EZID, a Box (i.e., a 4-sided polygon) is represented by the 4 bounding latitudes and longitudes. Mapping can be done by extracting the maximum and minimum latitude and longitude values from the lat-long pairs in the DAMS. But a more general solution for any polygon may be to "Enter coordinates of the polygon using either GeoJSON or Keyhole Markup Language (KML) formatted text. Each point is defined by a longitude‐latitude pair. The last point should be the same as the first point."
