Map view
Visualize addresses on a map 🗺️
Chuyển đến Câu hỏi thường gặpMap view lets you visualize database items on an interactive map. You can use it to plan a trip, see all the places you’ve visited before, plan field work, and more.
Place properties can be populated by granting access to your current location, entering the name of a location, or entering an address.
Note: To deliver results, address search relies on a third-party provider that processes your query. As a result, data quality and coverage may vary by region.

It’s possible you have multiple place properties in your database — this can happen if you’ve created a map view in a database without a place property, we create one for you, and then you add your own later. You can switch between place properties by doing the following:
Open the slider menu at the top of your map view.
In the menu that appears, select
