Overview

In Urbi Pro service, you can work with categories of prepared built-in data and your own data: uploaded as a file and uploaded via API.

All datasets (built-in and uploaded) are available on the Main and Data tabs.

Built-in data

Several built-in data categories are available:


Built-in data is available for the following countries:

  • Iraq
  • Bahrain
  • Qatar
  • Kuwait
  • UAE
  • Oman
  • Saudi Arabia

Usage scenarios

To solve analytical problems, you can create different samples from one dataset. A data sample contains data from a dataset that is filtered by territory and other parameters. You can create layers based on data samples for data visualization.

Base scenario for working with data:

  1. Select a category of the built-in data or upload your own data.
  2. Filter the data by territories by specifying geofilters. In geofilters, you can use the standard territories or your own territorial division.
  3. Filter the data by other available parameters depending on the dataset.
  4. Save the resulting data sample by creating a layer based on it for further data visualization.

When you create a layer and after creating it, you can modify the data sample:

  • Filter data by parameters.
  • Filter data by territories by applying geofilters.
  • Manually change the list of filtering results by removing particular objects. If you uploaded the dataset with point objects, you can add new objects to the sample: see the Adding point objects instruction.

If some layers and widgets are created based on the data sample, they reflect the changes. Any sample changes do not delete the data in the dataset.

Getting started

Data

  1. Select the Main or Data tab.

  2. Select the required category of the built-in data or the uploaded dataset.

    You can use the search to specify the output of data. Search results may include information about organizations and data from other categories.

  3. In the Geofilter settings box, select the territories for which the data sample is created (up to 50 territories). You can use:

    • Suggested standard territories: regions, districts, settlements, and others. Depending on the tariff, some territories may not be available.
    • Your own territorial division. To do this, first upload a dataset with polygons and create a territory filter.

    Click Done.

  4. If you selected the uploaded data that contains geometries of the line or polygon type, you can select the data display method on top of the Filters tab:

    • Points: display as centroid points (the centers of the object geometries).
    • Geometries: display as real data geometries (lines or polygons).

    In other datasets, only the Point display method is available.

  5. Set the remaining filters if necessary. Available filters depend on the source data. See a list of filters for built-in data in the description of each dataset, e.g., Firms.

The data is visualized on the map. Filtering results are also displayed next to the Filters tab.

To save this data sample and customize its visualization (e.g., as a heatmap), click Create layer.
