Location Lookups in Back Office

Our client need to accurately add property locations around the world to page properties. The index of those pages will then need to be filterable by Country and Town/City (of course only in the selected country if chosen) Any suggestions from anyone that has done this before? Or has used either: Our.Umbraco.GMaps - Google Maps for Umbraco 8+ or: Open Street Map Property Editor and can let us know if they are suitable Or any other suggestions / solutions

IIRC if you're using Our.Umbraco.GMaps, and the user enters an address, the package will use a Google API to query further information about the address - such as country and town. It might not be searchable out of the box, but you can hook into relevant events i Umbraco/Examine to do this if the package doesn't do it correctly on it's own.
