Some way to add a marker by URL?
I have an application for scanning drone-footage that has the option to "view the location of this image in map". When clicked, it should open up the browser and put a marker at that point.
Thus far, I've been doing this with Google, because it allows you to create a marker with a URL, given coordinates, e.g. https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=49.129754,-123.970366
With SAR/Cal-Topo, you can embed coordinates in the URL, e.g. https://sartopo.com/map.html#ll=49.12975,-123.97037&z=14 , but as far as I have seen you cannot actually have it actually make a marker at this point (it just centers the map to there).
Ideally, I'd like it to be possible for the user to click a URL, and be taken to a dialog asking them if they'd like to add a marker on their map at this location. Is this possible currently and if not, can I request it?

Hi Pete,
Unfortunately this is not currently possible, and may be seen by more people in the Feature Request part of the forum.
Thank you Rachel, I added it to the Feature Request forum.
