@zindi The available coordinates belong to Tanzania? I have checked through Chat Gpt, and it said "The longitude value 68.23267 seems incorrect for Tanzania because it lies far outside the country. Tanzania's longitude ranges from approximately 29∘29^\circ29∘ to 41∘41^\circ41∘ east. Please verify the longitude value and provide the correct coordinates for assistance."

Coordinates are transformed

as explained in the data section

"Please note locations geolocations and names have been masked to preserve the anonymity of the communities.".

So it looks like all the coordinates have been transformed to the new location (most likely in the middle of the ocean), but it should still maintain the original mapping of all the spots.
