Assign fields
- ID — a unique record identifier used for display and filtering.
- Latitude and Longitude — required coordinates for every mapped location.

- Categories — an optional field used to group objects and apply category colors.

Prepare coordinates
The dataset must contain latitude and longitude. If the source only contains addresses, geocode them before loading the records into the visual.
Important
Confirm the coordinate columns use the correct numeric data type and that latitude and longitude have not been swapped.
