Definitely did not realize that W coordinates mean negative longitude, thanks for teaching me this 🙂

There's an extra point in my legend, not sure where that comes from:

The workflow is quite straightforward:

The spatial functions are really incredible!

I love spatial tools... and mostly despise building Report Maps. BUT, I'm always so pleased with myself when the OCD finally achieves victory 🙂

Chose the more challenging route, and figured out a way to isolate those pubs that were North of the river by using a Map Input tool and simply drawing a line along the River Thames 🙂 The better solution would probably have been to find a data source with lat/lon points for the river banks... but there was pub drinking to be done. Ain't no one got time for that. So Map Input it was...

The final map - I chose to highlight those that ended up North of the Thames, and then grey out those that fell below the river. Took some maneuvering with the map layers, but it's a lovely looking pub crawl by the time I finished 🙂 Now, if only I could have tested it out in person!!  

Cheers!!
