W. Boynton, C. Fellows, K. Harshman, H. Enos, and R. Starr,
on behalf of the GRS-Odyssey GRB team, report:

The short-duration GRB 200907A
(AGILE/MCAL detection: Ursi et al., GCN 28378)
was detected by AGILE (MCAL), Konus-Wind, INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS),
Mars-Odyssey (HEND), and Swift (BAT) at about 51860 s UT (14:24:20).
The burst was outside the coded field of view of the BAT.

We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box
whose coordinates are:
 ---------------------------------------------
  RA(2000), deg                 Dec(2000), deg
 ---------------------------------------------
 Center:
  141.475 (09h 25m 54s)  -1.433 ( -1d 26' 00")
 Corners:
  141.200 (09h 24m 48s)  -1.061 ( -1d 03' 41")
  141.151 (09h 24m 36s)  -1.497 ( -1d 29' 48")
  141.752 (09h 27m 01s)  -1.796 ( -1d 47' 45")
  141.799 (09h 27m 12s)  -1.366 ( -1d 21' 58")
 ---------------------------------------------
The error box area is 986 sq. arcmin, and its maximum
dimension is 55 arcmin (the minimum one is 24.5 arcmin).
The Sun distance was 26 deg.

This box may be improved.
