The user will have to use a Google Maps API key to run the web application. The API requiring this key is used to display the map and also to use reverse geocoding to access the address of the selected location. This key should be stored as a local environmental variable, listed in a file in the root folder called '.env.local' in the format VITE_GOOGLE_API_KEY=<API KEY HERE>
