**Goal**  
Display the location of a single accident in a map component.

**Progress**

- I have a field to store map coordinates that is populated using the current location component.
- I want to display a map that shows this location only.
- Currenlty the map displays all locations for all records in the accidents table, I only want to show the location for the current accident. **How do I do this?**

Add a filter to the map component or use a relation that only has one matching result as it’s source. Think of it like any other collection style. How would you get the same result with just a list style collection.

Or just select ‘This Item’ as the source.
