Default Outlook invitation "location" should include a google map opt

Every time I am invited to an external meeting (especially when travelling) I
have to use Google Maps to find the location. It would be so much easier if
Microsoft added a "Map it" button next to the Location field so the address
would automatically populate in a browser window's map field.

You can use this macro for that;

Several mapping add-ins which integrate with the calendar as well can be
found here;
