Using a smart phone on the wifi at that office (obviously, the WIFI
network has to be providing IPv6, or bridged to a network providing IPv6),
go to google.com in a web browser (not the google app), and click near the
bottom of the page "Use precise location". AFAIK, that provides to GOOG
your GPS coordinates. It still might take a week for them to update
everything.
