Flagstaff is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 5 productions — in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.
1 place inside Flagstaff has a page of its own — listed below. Everything shot at it is already named above, recorded against Flagstaff as well.
“A second unit gathered plate shots and establishing shots of Manhattan, Washington, D.C., an RV community in Flagstaff, Arizona, and the Very Large Array on the Plains of San Agustin, New Mexico.”
Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Flagstaff as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Filming locations inside Flagstaff
1 place inside Flagstaff, with a page of its own. Every production shot at it is already listed above, because Wikidata records it against Flagstaff too.
Named here by Flagstaff’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Flagstaff, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.
