The actions further include determining multiple object types specified by the document data, the multiple object types indicating types of objects that are discoverable using the document. The actions further include obtaining object location data indicating locations associated with objects. The actions further include identifying objects having the determined object types that are associated with locations in a particular geographical area. The actions further include obtaining attributes of the identified objects from one or more databases. The actions further include generating a view of the document based on the document data, the identified objects, and the obtained attributes.
