# Create a composite geography

Create a composite geography by combining different geographies into a single, powerful view for efficient planning. You can streamline tasks and optimize resources using a composite geography.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_fsm\_tp.fsm\_territory\_planner, sn\_fsm\_tp.fsm\_territory\_manager

## About this task

Composite Geography combines smaller geographies into a bigger, more impactful one. For example, you can use composite geography if you've created three or more smaller geographies and now want to unite them into a larger geography.

## Procedure

1.  Open either Territory Planning platform or Territory Planning console based on your role.

    -   Navigate to **All** > **Field Service** > **Territory Planning**.
    -   Navigate to **All** > **Field Service** > **Territory Planning** > **Territory Planning Console**.
2.  Do either of the following.

</td><td>

Select the geographies which you want to comprise into a composite geography. **Note:** You can choose up to 10 GeoJSON geographies. Avoid selecting a composite geography or a geography with matching attributes within another composite geography.

</td></tr></tbody>
</table>4.  Select **Submit**.

    The composite geography is created.


## Result

The composite geography encompasses all the latitude, longitude, and geo points contained within the selected geographies. Associate the composite geography to a territory to manage work order tasks in the Territory Planning console. The geography appears visually on the map when its territory is selected in the Territory Planning console.

## What to do next

Link the geography to a territory. For more information, see [Create a Field Service territory](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/field-service-management/workforce-optimization-for-field-service/create-territories-territory-planning-console.md).
