Polygon

This visualization method is available only for the layers created with data aggregation, datasets uploaded as a file, and datasets uploaded via API.

The Polygon visualization method is useful when visualizing objects that have a specific area and perimeter. A closed contour is created on the map, with nodes having specific coordinates in space.

Overview

Polygon

To choose a visualization method:

  1. Go to the Dashboards tab.
  2. Open the required dashboard.
  3. To open a scene, use the arrows Left arrow and Right arrow. If there is only one scene in the dashboard, it opens automatically when you open the dashboard.
  4. To open the layer, click Layers icon and select the required layer.
  5. In General settings, select the Polygon visualization method.
  6. Set the remaining visualization parameters if necessary.

The data is visualized on the map.

Parameters

For the Polygon visualization method, the following parameters are available:

  • Tooltip setup: enable to customize the list of attributes that are displayed when hovering the cursor over the item on the map. Select the required attributes and change their order if necessary. The available values ​​depend on the data in the sample.

    Tooltip setup

    If the option is disabled, the tooltip shows all data attributes from the dataset.

  • Color: selecting the color of the data display. You can color elements in two ways:

    • Color basis: attribute based on which the elements on the map and in the legend are colored according to the color scale. The available values ​​depend on the data in the sample.

      To reset the parameter, click Cross icon next to the parameter name.

      • Color scale: set of prepared color samples.

      • Invert: select to invert the selected color scale.

      • Steps: number of steps in the color scale from 1 to 10.

      • Legend: configuring of data ranges in the legend. Ranges are calculated automatically depending on a type of scale (for Logarithmic, Linear, and Exponential types). You can also customize ranges manually by entering the required range limits or changing the order and number of ranges (Adjustable type). The specified upper (right) limit is not included in the range. The maximum number of ranges is 10.
        To change the order of ranges, hold down Move icon next to the required range and drag it. To add a range, click Plus icon. To delete a range, click Trash icon.

      • Type of scale: distribution type used to calculate data ranges in the legend. Available only for numeric attributes:

        • Logarithmic - displays a wide range of data. Recommended to use if values ​​differ by several orders of magnitude.
        • Linear - displays values ​​of the same order.
        • Exponential - displays data that changes quickly. Recommended to use if you need to highlight small values and ignore large values.
        • Adjustable - manual configuring of ranges. In all ranges except the last one, the specified upper (right) limit is not included in the range.

      • Opacity: setting an opacity of the elements on the map.

    • If the Color basis is not selected, you can select a color from the palette or specify it in HEX format. The elements on the map are colored the same, and the color legend is not displayed.

      • Opacity: setting an opacity of the elements on the map.

  • Outline: enable to display an outline around the elements.

    • Color scale: selecting an outline color.
    • Stroke width: stroke width in pixels from 1 to 25. When Height is turned on, the setting is not available.

  • Height: enable to display the data as a bar chart. To enable three-dimensional display format on the map, select the 3D in the bottom-right corner of the map.

    Polygon in column chart form
    • Height basis: parameter based on which the elements on the map are formed. The available values ​​depend on the data in the sample.
    • Height scale: column height multiplier from 0.1 to 20.
