Map


The Map widget is generally used for visualization analysis capabilities based on geographic location, and allows you to use latitude and longitude data to analyze and view data in different regions. In the Map widget, the data that needs to be displayed can be filtered by configuring a global filter.


The configuration items of the Map widget mainly include Basic Settings, Data Items, and Chart Style.

Basic Settings

In the Basic Settings section, provide the following basic information of the Map widget:

  • Basic Information: Enter the title and description of the Map widget, and configure the title font and whether to hide the title
