Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Indianapolis 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 Indianapolis

3 places inside Indianapolis, each with a page of their own. Every production shot at them is already listed above, because Wikidata records them against Indianapolis too.

Named here by Indianapolis’s own Wikipedia article

Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Indianapolis, 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.

Hoosiers 1986

“The city's sports venues have served as backdrops for such films as Hoosiers (1986) and Eight Men Out (1988).” Wikipedia

Set here, per Wikipedia

Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Indianapolis, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement: two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.
