The olfactory area is found in the nasal cavity.
A rather simplistic answer by the previous respondent, it is in-fact found in the medial aspect of the temporal lobe.

What Olfactory area is involved in the conscious perception of smell?
I think is lateral olfactory area.
Where is the olfactory epithelium found?
The olfactory epithelium occupies an area of about 5 cm2 in the roof of the nasal cavity. The specialized receptor cells in the olfactory epithelium are surrounded by supporting cells, non-sensory epithelial cells. The olfactory receptor cells are bipolar neurons whose olfactory cilia extend outward from the epithelium.
Where is the secondary olfactory cortex located in the brain?
The olfactory cortex is located within the medial temporal lobes.
Where are the olfactory cells found?
Smelling
What are nerve cells found in the nose and throat?
olfactory nerve
Olfactory nerve filaments are found?
in the olfactory bulb

Where the olfactory nerve found?
in the ol' factory
What is the sensory receptors for smell?
The olfactory receptor is found in the nose.
What are nerve cells found in the nose and throat?
olfactory nerve
Where are the olfactory receptors and why is that site poorly suited for their job?
The Olfactory receptors are found in the nose. This is a poor site for its job because it is far from the ground.
Are the olfactory receptors located in the vestibule of the nose?
The olfactory receptors are found in the olfactory epithelium in the upper portion of the nose. The sense is highly sensitive and easily fatigued. Information travels to your brain for storage, interpretation and memory.
How can an infection that spreads from the frontal or maxillary sinus impair the sense of smell?
If there were to be an infection in this area, it is possible that you would not receive chemical input from the environment. And for the second portion of your homework... Olfactory cells, olfactory nerve, and olfactory bulb :)
Where is the olfactory region located?
The olfactory is the "sense of smell through your nose. The cerebrum part of the brain, more specifically, the temporal lobe, is where the olfactory/sense of smell is. That is also the part of that controls hearing.
