The following table will provide you with information on the different map types and reasons for using each of them, linking you to their individual tutorials.
[*Raster Map*] |
|
If you do not have GIS defined columns you can use the Image Maps to create heat maps - these are a good way to display metrics with a spatial element such as Revenue by State or Country You will only be able to render maps for which an image map has been defined. |
[*Google*] |
|
Google Maps allow you to render location data points onto a Google map which will be displayed as a Yellowfin Chart - along with associated Google map widgets. You will have to have a Google Map Key to use this type of chart |
[*GIS Google Map*] |
|
A Google map which uses GIS data for its marker coordinates. |
[*GIS*] |
|
GIS Maps allow the rendering of complex GIS polygons. These can be used to render spatial reports on the fly based on the GIS data available in a report. |
[*GIS Bubble*] |
|
A bubble map in which bubble positions are specified by GIS points. |
[*GIS Heat*] |
|
A heat map where colours representing GIS points are blended based on intensity. |
