Question about translation of coordinates

The question was sent originally on helpdesk by @pragermh

When I try to add a translation for specific decimalLatitude / Longitude values in a large dataset, I only get to choose from three different values to change. Any idea why?

Thanks. Translation functionality is flawed. It was implemented in such a way that it only allows translation of values ​​from the first 10,000 records. It's not very useful for large datasets, but we've never had a demand to rewrite it.

Aha, thanks. The dataset has more than 2*10^6 occurrence records, and we should probably transform it into an event-based dataset with < 10,000 event records, in the future. But for now I can edit values in the source data instead.
