This came up during the Great Shakeout event.

The coordinates were properly embedded in the JSON data.
ETO-09 did not process the coordinates.
JSON data for the error setup looks like:
"ciim_mapLat": "37.69265467",
"ciim_mapLon": "-121.78917017",

JSON data for correct setup looks like:
"ciim_mapLat": "37.670500",
"ciim_mapLon": "-121.889667",

It's hard to say exactly as the EmComm-Training team (https://emcomm-training.org/) does not officially support PAT, so it's a challenge to get a final say what the issue is. It's BELIEVED to be a decimal point error, that the parsing script fails when the data exceeds 8 digits total.

You can see the finally parsed data here, with no LAT/LON data present.

I have no ability to directly reproduce the failure, as I don't have access to the mapping tool and requests for more information have not yet been answered from the feedback team.
