You can see where your stories took place on a map
Makerble will use:
the location saved within each story (if you have added a location to a story or survey response)
or the location of the project that the story belongs to (if you have not added a location to a story but you have added a location to a project)
Steps
The map reads the standard story Location field.
If you are using custom Location field rather than the standard Location field, your stories will only be shown on the map if you are using the standard Location field for the story’s project.
You can edit a survey and add the standard Location field to it
