A Location column stores a place as a latitude and longitude. A location can also carry a label and an address.
When to use it#
Use a Location for anything that has a place: a Site, a Delivery Stop, an Asset, or a reading taken in the field.
A map view needs a Location column. Filters on a Location column can keep records within a radius of a point or inside an area of the map. That is also how a base view can limit a team to its own region.
If people only ever read an address and never need it on a map, a Text column is enough. As soon as someone needs to see records on a map or filter by distance, use a Location.
Enter a location#
In a table, type the coordinates as latitude and longitude separated by a comma, for example 48.13715, 11.57612.
Settings#
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Coordinate format | How coordinates are shown when a location has no label: Decimal degrees or Degrees / minutes / seconds. |
| Default latitude and Default longitude | Where the map picker starts. |
| Default zoom (1–20) | How far the map picker is zoomed in when it opens. |
The default position and zoom are under Show advanced options when you create the column, and in Edit property afterwards.
