If possible, add a higher-level detail column to your data.

Question: When I use certain text-based locations, I end up with a blank map and an error, or some of my points map in other countries.Īnswer: If you use data where there might be more than one similar location in the world, map charts can’t necessarily tell the difference without more guidance. Chose to show names based on fit, or show all labels. Map labels - Show geographic names for your countries/regions. Map area - Change the map's Zoom level, ranging from a state/province view, all the way to the world view. By default, Excel will display the most efficient style. Map projections - Change the map's projection style.

If you need some of the map Series options, then you can build your chart in Excel for Windows or Mac and view it on an Android device or Excel Mobile. There are several map chart specific Series options, however they are not supported in Android devices or Excel Mobile. Depending on your data, Excel will insert either a value or category map. If the preview looks good, then press OK. Now it's time to create a map chart, so select any cell within the data range, then go to the Insert tab > Charts > Maps > Filled Map. In the following example, we've converted a list of countries to geography data types, then selected the Tax revenue (%) field from the Add Column control to use in our map. Excel will automatically convert your data to a geography data type, and will include properties relevant to that data that you can display in a map chart. Simply input a list of geographic values, such as country, state, county, city, postal code, and so on, then select your list and go to the Data tab > Data Types > Geography. Map charts have gotten even easier with geography data types. Each country is represented by a different color. In the following example, Countries by Category, the categories are displayed using a standard legend to show groups or affiliations. By default, the higher the value is, the darker its corresponding color will be. The color for each region is dictated by where along the spectrum its value falls. The values represent tax revenue in each country with each portrayed using a gradient spectrum of two colors. Categories are represented by different colors.įor example, the Countries by Tax Revenue % chart below uses values. Values are represented by slight variations of two to three colors.

If self-hosting the Azure Maps Web SDK via the NPM module, be sure to use the caret (^) symbol to in combination with the Azure Maps NPM package version number in your package.json file so that it will always point to the latest minor version.Map charts can display both values and categories, and they each have different ways of displaying color. If your application points to the latest major version of the hosted version of the Azure Maps Web SDK, it will automatically receive all minor version updates that will include security related fixes. Any known security issue is fixed in a timely manner and released to production. The Azure Maps SDKs go through regular security testing along with any external dependency libraries that may be used by the SDKs. Security best practicesįor security best practices, see Authentication and authorization best practices. Generally, when looking to improve performance of the map, look for ways to reduce the number of layers and sources, and the complexity of the data sets and rendering styles being used. This article highlights best practices and tips and tricks to maximize performance and create a smooth user experience. In some cases, there are multiple ways to render data the same way, but depending on the size of the data set and the desired functionality, one method may perform better than others. The Azure Maps Web SDK provides a powerful canvas for rendering large spatial data sets in many different ways. This document focuses on best practices for the Azure Maps Web SDK, however, many of the best practices and optimizations outlined can be applied to all other Azure Maps SDKs.
