I am working on creating an online interactive map resource allowing everyone to add information related to physics to any location on the globe.

If anyone could provide address / Google map link for places which are related to field of physics that will be a great help for me

Thanks in Advance

Most physics research happens at universities. Your map will be ignoring the biggest chunk of physics research unless you include an option for universities.

You're welcome. It's very easy to "guess" the websites of universities, and then follow the links from the main page!

Google is a pretty fascinating feature of the internet as well. I am a bit worried about this program you are setting up if you have a hard time finding the Caltech website! (just kidding)

Google took me about 20 seconds from the time I opened my browser, typed www.google.com and searched for Caltech Physics Department.

Just giving some advice to help expedite the process so you guys don't have to wait around looking for universities.
