Hi,

I would like to display these types of location on a single map without use hierarchy. Currently, we can set a value with this format: "County, Country" on the location field but why not set a value like that: "Location, LocationType, Country" where LocationType is County, Country/Region or State/Province.

In this way, a filled map could show all location type on a single map.

Regard,

Mapping UK data is quite tedious. Even adding the country name or location, they seem to pop up all over the world. It would be so much easier if you could specify a country or region in the fields, so that all place names are interpreted relative to that.
