Arc Map

Arc Map Description:

  • Field 1 - Geographic Field - This field will represent the source city on the map. A line will be drawn from it to the destination city.

  • Field 2 - Geographic Field - This field will represent the destination city on the map. A line will be drawn to the destination city from the source city.

  • Field 3+ - Metric - These values of one field at a time, selectable from a dropdown, will be displayed on the map.

  • Notes:

    • Metric fields will not graphically display if they are negative.
    • Arc Map currently only supports the continental United States.

General Field Definitions:

  • Metric - This column can be any data type. It is generally an aggregate, and most commonly a numeric, but does not have to be. These columns are the elements that are being charted, mapped, or displayed on your visualization.

  • Geographic Field - This column is a special case. It is used in map-style visualizations. It must be a list of geographic entities, such as a list of countries, regions, or states.
