Add location #34

I got some feedback from Julie Thomas at SCOOS and she suggested we add some icon or marker or way to tell the user the region of the infographic. As it sits now you wouldn't know it's the Florida Keys coral reef ecosystem.

I know we had talked about having a marker on the explorer app for the regions with local datasets displayed in an infographic.

Anyways food for thought as something we should consider adding later.

Given that the list of locations is relatively short, we could put the locations of the infographics & some generated graphics into a separate repository (something like github.com/marinebon/infographic-map). Then that could be easily included from infographiq and/or @bbest 's explorer later on.

Expanding on this a bit further: We should define the locations of each infographic in a GeoJSON file. I think we want to put these all in one file in the infographic-map repo.

From this leaflet could be used to create miniature maps within infographiq, and the id of the map could be used to highlight the relevant point. I believe the explorer app also uses leaflet, so the methods would be easy to transfer over at a later date.
