Custom Location field not in test scratch org after push in geolocation project

I'm working through the geolocation app in Trailhead and I ran into a minor problem. The last step in the "Build the Account Map Display" section has you create a new, fresh scratch org ("GeoTestOrg"), push your code into it, import data, and make sure your stuff works properly there. I've followed the instructions carefully (I think) but I get an error when trying to load the sample data:
ERROR:  No such column 'Location__Latitude__s' on sobject of type Account.
I checked the Account schema in GeoTestOrg using this command, but my Location__c field doesn't appear:
$ sfdx force:schema:sobject:describe -s Account -u GeoTestOrg
Using a similar command for my "working" scratch org, I do see Location__c having been defined (and I see my location markers, etc. properly when I run from there):
$ sfdx force:schema:sobject:describe -s Account
So it seems as if the Location__c custom field on Account isn't getting pushed to GeoTestOrg. From the Developer Console on GeoTestOrg I do see that my components and other files (AccountList, AccountMap, etc.) are there, so something got pushed successfully.

I tried the create / push / check steps again with another new scratch org and got the same result -- no new Location__c field on Account. Anybody have any idea what I might be doing wrong, or what I can do to investigate? Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi Jeff,

Were you able to resolve this issue? I'm getting the same error while working on the SFDX trailhead module.

Thanks,

Sunita

Hi Jeff,

The issue was with the field level security for the Location__c field, set the visibility in the scratch org from the UI and then executed the CLI command to import/upload the data into the scratch org.

Thanks,

Sunita
