Description: When filtering for records that have geospatial issues, i get a result of 420 records for this dataset, but looking at some of them, it seems that the system has a problem with records coming from the danish island of Bornholm and records very close to the sea (looked at one record from a habor in French Guiana

Problem appears to be null response from geo lookup for coords:
http://api.gbif.org/v0.9/lookup/reverse_geocode/?lng=11.76667&lat=55.73333

Comment: That point is the very tip of Holbaek so I'm guessing this point falls between our land layer and our eez layer. Improved coord interp should use some fuzzying in these cases, or we get better lookup layers. I'll make a new issue that links to this one.
