+Locating a point
+----------------
+
+You can use the "Locate a point" feature from the homepage.  It allows you
+to locate a point (given its GPS coordinates) on all panoramas at the same time.
+
+For each panorama that can "see" the target point, a direct link is provided to
+orient the view to the estimated position.  This allows you to quickly ascertain
+whether the target point is actually visible from at least one existing location.
