Garching) report:

Given the interest in this GRB and the optical follow-up work, we
performed a more thorough analysis of the GRB 200514B with the BALROG
localization/spectral fitting method (Burgess et al. 2018, MNRAS 476, 1427;
Berlato et al. 2019, ApJ 873, 60), finding a localization of

  RA (2000.0) = 260 +/- 12
  Decl. (2000.0) = 58.8 +/- 6.8
  (1 sigma error). 
  
The Healpix map can be found at:

Spectral analysis of the time interval T0 = -0.38 ... 0.58s with
the empirical Band function yields the following best-fit spectral
parameters:

 alpha = -0.63 +/- 0.30
 beta = -2.13 +/- 0.29
 Ep = 170 +/- 70 keV

with an energy flux of (3.5 +/-2) x 10^-7 erg/cm2/s in the 10-1000 keV band.
