Requesting a geographical visualization of experts' location based on the geodata we already have stored in Active Directory. Previously Ann-Christin Markert had asked for something similar ('Creation of geographical user map'), but this idea was closed. We see a different opportunity.

We have geodata already in place in AD: city, office location, country and similar values are stored for most users. We are working with you to ensure these data are automatically accessible to Starmind. Microsoft Excel has for years had a very simple mapping feature which uses geographic coordinates for each geographic entity (e.g. 'New York', 'Paris'), so we wouldn't need to create coordinates.

The idea is to plot a map showing the point location for those users who provide Answers (since Questions are anonymous). And then the very useful part would be to have the same plot available per selected Category or Category combination. It would provide an extremely powerful visualization!
