What version of SAS Visual Analytics are you using?

You might need to add Custom Polygon data for Geographic Maps.

http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/vaag/69958/HTML/default/viewer.htm#n0g5kjtnbvsrwbn1lxl2wahyc5du.htm

These blogs gives some idea how to approach.

You can use this blog as reference, something similar like your requirement.

You may don't need to move the data point using PROC GREMOVE, there is already a required document for your need.

proc sql;
create table Delhi_Map_Data as
select a.ID as DISTRICT_ID,a.ID1 as STATE_ID,a.x,a.y,a.LONG,a.LAT,b.IDNAME as DISTRICT, b.ID1NAME as STATE, b.ISONAME as COUNTRY
	from mapsgfk.india a
	inner join mapsgfk.india_attr b
		on (a.id=b.id and a.id1=b.id1)
	Where id1name='DELHI';

quit;

Refer to the Admin document referred in my previous reply to learn more about the custom polygons. Unfortunately I don't have required access to test these.
