Adding a custom map
- Prepare your data:
- Attribute: Location name or coordinates
- Measure: Numeric value, for example shipment count
- Create a report of type Geomap and add a measure and attribute. For example, Quantity by Region.
Note: If there is no map associated with the attribute, Visualizer displays a warning message. This message disappears when you upload the KML file and associate the custom map with the attribute.
- Save the KML file.
Add one <Placemark> per location. Verify the coordinates format: longitude and latitude.Note: The maximum size of KML is 20 MB.
- Click Map Formatting.
- Click Custom Maps.
- Click Upload Custom Map.
- Upload the KML file:
- Select Admin > Settings > Map Layers
- Click Add Layer and upload your .kml file.
Visualizer uploads the map file and adds it to the Custom Maps list.
Note: We recommend that you include the descriptive names for tooltips. - Click Done.
