Create maps and geospatial charts

You can create two types of maps in Insights: point maps and filled maps. Point maps show the difference between data values for each location by size. Filled maps show the difference between data values for each location by varying shades of color.

Before you get started creating maps, make sure that the dataset you are using contains location data. Location data is data that corresponds to latitudinal and longitudinal values. Location data can include a column for latitude and a column for longitude in your dataset. It can also include a column with city names. Insights can chart latitude and longitude coordinates. It also recognizes geographic components such as country, state or region, county or district, city, and ZIP code or postal code.
