Data Cleaning - Geolocation information robustness #806

@iperdomo I'm not sure if this one is worth the time to address since I think everyone is aware of the situation, but thought I would log the issue here just to keep a track of it. Could you close/assign if necessary?

When performing data cleaning, if a column is moved and mistakenly placed in amongst the geolocation information then this results in some of that being overriden. For example I uploaded the following file:

Which once reuploaded and then redownloaded appears as follows:
