Data Presentation Basics

The Dashboard supports three types of Geo Point maps.

  • The Geo Point Map dashboard item places callouts on the map using geographical coordinates.

  • The Bubble Map dashboard item displays bubbles on the map. The color and size of each bubble relay data particular to that color and size.

  • The Pie Map dashboard item displays pies on the map. Each pie shows the relative contribution that different values contribute to the total.

    You can switch between the provided values using the Values button (the icon) in the map's caption.
