Map visualisation: finding city

‎10-12-2018 07:54 AM

Hi everyone,

 

I have a dataset with 3 cities from the Netherlands: Eindhoven, Best and Uden.

 

The map visual can find Eindhoven and Uden, but can't find Best. I have already changed the data type to City, but with no avail. I don't have actual adresses, just the cities.

 

suggestions?

@parry2k

 

sorry, can you explain what you mean by "concatenate it with country code and data category as region"?

do you mean creating "Best, NL" variable and settig data category as Region? cause then he can't find anything at all...
