-!!What the Geo Package is ''NOT''
+!!!What the Geo Package is ''NOT''
 The Geo Package does not do geocoding, it does not store addresses, and it does not provide map visualization. The Geo Package only stores lat/lng pairs and elevation values. Geocoding must be obtained from outside the Geo Package, likewise if you have an address you want to store, it must be stored somewhere other than in the Geo Package table. If you are looking for map visualization, you may find the GmapPackage, which uses the Google Maps API, will suite your needs.

+!!!Using GeoPackage with GmapPackage
+The Gmap Package has been rewriten to utilize the funtionality of Geo and through its own set of services, automatically includeds a Geo lat/lng form into all content editing forms. This makes it easy to click on a map and get lat/lng values and assign them to your wiki page, articles, blog post, user preferences, etc.
