Introduction to Geospatial Service Visualizations with Markers

You can display locations as markers in a geospatial service visualization.

Tip: Display individual retail locations with markers. Hover over a marker to view additional information for the corresponding store.

You can display markers as static image markers or bubble markers:

• Image markers are fixed size images that mark locations on a map. You can color image markers or replace them with a different images based on metric values.
• Bubble markers provide two visual cues to help you analyze data that appears on a map: size and color. You can choose to size bubble markers based on the value of a metric. Makers with large metric values appear larger in size. Markers with small metric values appear smaller in size.

You can perform the following tasks using a geospatial service visualization with markers:

• Color markers by attribute elements or metric values.
• View different types of maps, such as topographical or satellite.
• Cluster markers in a circle when a large number of map markers appear in the same area. You can zoom in on the area and display individual map markers by clicking on a cluster.
• View additional information for locations by adding tooltips. You can display tooltips by hovering over map markers.
