How can I add and geolocalize objects within my RoadRunner scene?

I have created a scene for the stretch of road in RoadRunner.
I know the latitude and longitude (in decimal) of the bus stops and traffic lights along this route, and I would like to accurately place these elements in the scene.
How can I achieve this?

When geolocating a scene and objects in RoadRunner, the recommended way is by importing GIS assets for reference, such as aerial imagery or, even better, a shapefile containing georeferenced points. For example, you can generate a simple georeferenced shapefile externally and then import it into RoadRunner. If the points are properly mapped to assets, props can be automatically generated at their correct locations.

This is an example: Create Roads Around Imported GIS Assets.

Alternatively, a workaround would be to use the World Settings Tool to set the scene's world origin coordinates. Then, you can use the Measure Tool to create points in the scene and check their coordinates in the attributes for alignment.
