I also don't use the American way of doing locations, but I do use the geolocation database to put longitude and latitude data into all my locations.
I don't use Bing. I'm quite happy with the Legacy mapping, except that it assumes that the leftmost field of 4 is a town. I would love to use locations including street addresses and, in fact, that was what I did until advised otherwise. Maybe if I had known about this mailing list I would have done things differently. I found that the actual location was off the Dardanelles, so I've taken the Geo Dardanelles location and changed it to "At sea off the Dardanelles, Çanakkale, Turkey" which fits nicely. Everything else is in the Cause of death field.
