Adding the Heat Map Layer

Visualize your measures in terms of data density on the map.

Prerequisites

To add data from a model to a heat map layer, the model must contain at least one location dimension. For more information see Creating a Model with Coordinate or Area Data for Geospatial Analysis. For both private and public generic as well as organization dimensions, you can enrich a dimension using coordinate data within the modeller, see Creating a Geo-Enriched Dimension Property Structure for a Model With Coordinate Data.

To pick the model that the layer will be based on, under Data Source select (edit).
If you have associated a model with a previously added layer, this data source will by default appear under Data Source. Use (edit) to change the data source.
Select Heat Map Layer from the Layer Type list.
From the + Add Location Dimension list under Location Dimension, select the dimension that you want to visualize.
Under Heatmap Color, select a measure from the + Add Measure list to determine values used to color the data points on the map.

If you are using a New Model with Measures as your data source, select + Add Dimension/Account to specify an Account and Measure pairing for the Heatmap Color. To define more settings, expand the associated Account heading.
1. Select a color from the Palette list.
2. If necessary, adjust the Blur Radius value.
  This setting determines the size of each point and how it overlaps with other points. A higher percentage value results in a larger blur radius.
3. If necessary, adjust the Opacity of the layer.
4. Choose the number of Ranges for the palette.
  This sets the number of KPI values. Specify values to set the KPI ranges for each color in the palette. Use the switch beside the Ranges list to display KPI values as percentages or as absolute values.
Select OK to save all layer settings.
