French term or phrase: géolocalisation Google
Artex, Centre pour l’artisanat d’art et l’artisanat traditionnel, a été crée par les associations professionnelles en 1999 avec le soutien de la Ville de Florence, la Province de Florence, la Région, le patronat, la Chambre de Commerce et les secteurs du tourisme et de la culture. Ses objectifs :
 promouvoir les techniques artistiques innovantes,
 rendre l’offre compétitive et en phase avec la demande internationale,
 stimuler l’innovation par un concours mettant en relation les écoles d’art, de design, l’université, et les entreprises toscanes,
 promouvoir les produits, par la publication d’une part d’un annuaire à l’attention des touristes recensant 600 ateliers d’arts, des événements et des musées, et d’autre part d’une base de données bilingue en ligne avec une géolocalisation Google des produits et entreprises.


Wasnt too sure how to classify the context of this phrase. I think geo-localisation does exist in english but what does it mean?

I think they mean a Google map (or a link to one) showing the business's location.

Not to be confused with GPS coordinates.
