Option one, create a lookup function in the maplabel layer which take lat lon as input and return the city and town name for it.Those info should be read only.

Option two, pass the lat lon info to the MapLabel and organize the maplabels as State/City/Town which allow people to get all the information. Those should be readonly.

Hi, thanks for the feature request!

To clarify, do you need the actual LatLon of the label itself, or just a way to look up labels on the MapLabelLayer which may be "near" a LatLon?

Hi Kircher1,
Thank you for the reply. I am looking for an actual Latlon of the label itself. If that is impossible, can we make the label in a well know hierarchy? For example, the 'Country' name should be the parent of the 'State' name, The 'State' name should be parent of the 'City' name, the 'City' name should be the parent of all the town name. The later option will be ideal.

I figured a solution for now. The scale of the maplabels are different and seems to be linear. So the largest map label can be identified.
