Location Info

Specifies the mapping location of the markers or areas for the selected group by field in the Drill Path box. For each group level that you want to show on the map, specify a DBfield or formula that contains the value matching the folder name in <install_root>\gisinfo\geocode used by the geographic map. For example you may group by Country and State. For State, you would want to use a formula fStateCountry that concatenates state and country so Google Maps, OpenStreetMap or OpenCycleMap knows which state to use such as "New York, USA" or "California, USA".
