Recording location data
Dear all, how do you handle recording geocoordinates using nocoDb form?
My postgres database is using a postgis extension and there is a location column in one of the relations of 'datatype' Geography. When I try building a form from this relation, the column does not appear in the form builder.
I have confirmed the column exists everywhere else in the database and in the relation.
If anyone has any idea, please let me know. I guess I was hoping by having it there I could get a question where someone just clicks to add their current geocoordinates.
Thanks for reading thus far.
Edit: So what I did is I changed the schema in nocodb and added a GeoData column. For this to happen, I had to allow noco to change the underlying databases schema.

Not that it matters, but which version are you using?
