Geo Map

Using the geo map widget, you can overlay multiple layers of business data on geo map with detailed geographic information to perform analyzes on your geographic data.

The geo map widget is used in both stories and analytic applications. Only the properties specific for the analytics designer are listed here.


Property	Property Value	Property Description
Name	String	Defines the unique name of a geo map. If you do not enter a name, the system takes the default name (for example GeoMap_1).

Quick Menus PropertiesThe toggle Visible in Runtime controls in general whether all the quick menu items are visible or not when you run an analytic application. After enabling this option, you can use the checkbox to define whether each of the properties below is visible or not.
Property	Property Value	Property Description
Drill	Checkbox	Enabled by default. Allows application users to filter selected data points.
Full Screen	Checkbox	Enabled by default. Allows application users to display a widget in full screen.
Create Story from Widget	Checkbox	Not enabled by default. If you enable the option as an application designer, the option will be available when application users click the icon next to the widget, which allows them to create a new story from the geo map.
Filter/Exclude	Checkbox	Enabled by default. Allows application users to exclude selected data from filters.

After adding a geo map widget to the canvas or popup, as an application designer you can write scripts to trigger changes to different layers of the geo map. For example:

Sample Code

//click the button to set the bottom layer of the geo map to invisible  
GeoMap_1.getLayer(0).setVisible(false);
