Feature

A feature is each one of the entities represented in your map layer, that will contain data. For example, countries, states/regions, cities, polygons, lines or points.

• Depending on the app subtype, features will represent either geographic entities (countries, states/regions or cities) or points.

• In a Google Sheet, each row represents a feature.

For example:

• In apps of subtype Geographic Area, each one of your countries, states/regions or cities is a feature.

• In apps of subtype Geographic Location, each one of your raw geographic coordinates is a feature (points, lines, polygons...).

A feature belongs to an app, and can have many feature properties.

App Subtype: Green Accommodation

Name	Required	Description	Validation	Example
title	true	Title of the hotel.	Non-empty string values.	Hotel Casa Amsterdam

The city name and country must not be included in this field; the country must either be field country (ISO code) or feature property with name country_name, and the city name must be the feature property with name city_name. If you specify bcom_id instead (feature property), we will use the ID from Booking.com to fetch the hotel details from Booking.com, which is more accurate than geolocation.	Non-empty string values.
