How does Qlik GeoAnalytics deal with city name like Saint Louis, Saint-Louis or St. Louis?

Manually troubleshooting? Any auto method?

Thanks!

Hi Haikuo,

Miss-matches will happen, city names are ambiguous and can be spelled in different ways.

QGA includes alias for many cities but not all them.

1. Correct the city name at the source (not always possible)

2. Layer properties->Location Options->Manual Remap (if just a few errors)

3. Create a translation table that holds the different spellings.
