Computers A Work Project

Hi everyone.

I have a side job cleaning drop boxes for a company that services drop boxes for FedEx, UPS, OnTrac, etc., and have been tasked to look into a project idea for the business.

Normally we clean the box, remove any tape/residue, clean any graffiti, and snap two pictures of the box showing all angles of it for approval.

Our owner is looking to:
1. Establish the latitude/longitude coordinates of each drop box (that she could get off of Google Maps)

2. Be able to "photograph" the coordinates to reduce the chances of transposition or elimination errors.

3. Develop a system that would allow the owner of the box (like FedEx) to utilize the information we provide. (i.e. how is that information used/inputed in someone's smartphone or GPS to go find the box.)

I hope that makes sense. My question is:
-What apps (free or paid) might fit that description?
-Any other thoughts on how we might proceed?

TIA
