Geographical data
Geographical records are shared reference data used across itineraries, ports, transfers, and reporting. They rarely change once set up. All of them live under Master Data → Geographical.
Who can access this: requires the Settings (read) permission.
All geo records support per-language titles and descriptions; you must fill in every active language before you can save.
Regions (Destinations)
Master Data → Geographical → Region defines the broad areas you operate in (for example, "North Malé Atoll").

Regions are the parent of your harbours and airports, group your itineraries, and feed the geographic breakdowns in reporting. A single region can span more than one country.

|---|---|
| Key | A short code for the region. |
| Country | One or more countries the region spans. |
| Description | Per-language title and text. |
Harbours (Ports)
Master Data → Geographical → Harbour defines seaports and jetties, each tied to a region and country.
