Adding a custom field in Location Insights
Updated
Users can drill down on specific widgets to view distribution by other meta-location information which the user enters. Custom fields vary from customer to customer as different customers have different use cases. For example, a brand wants to see where their outlets are present, so a custom field can be added that maps every business location added to the platform where it is located, airport, mall, streets, etc.
