GPS cords should be legally required.
If geographical location is not a high level bit of information worthy of noting in an index type of importance ,why do we allow the government to spend billions on research based on the principles of the science behind it and allow them to fail to use it in the simplest cheapest ways?

Respectfully, I'm not sure I understand your point. I have found that GPS coordinates listed in NamUs are almost never exact locations, but more often are just the geographic center of a town or a random location.

FWIW I looked for local news articles with more details about this UP and found nothing.

There are currently no exclusions listed at NamUs.

It was kinda just a rant ,based on frustration. It could be easier to solve some cases and the tiny things that could be done ..like exact GPS entered in after a doe inst Identified in the amount of time the law requires to have past before they lose property for not paying taxes.
