Polygon
This visualization method is available only for Uploaded data.
The Polygon visualization method will be useful when visualizing objects that have a specific area and perimeter. A closed contour will be created on the map, with nodes having specific coordinates in space.
Overview
To choose a display method:
- Upload the prepared data.
- Create a layer from the uploaded data.
- Go to the Layers tab.
- Select the created layer.
- Select the Polygon display method on the General settings tab.
- Set the remaining filter parameters if necessary.
The data will be visualized on the map.
Parameters
For the Polygon display method, the following parameters are available:
-
Color: the color scale of the data display.
- Color basis: the parameter based on which the elements on the map will be colored according to the Color scale. The available values depend on the selected data category.
- Color scale: the set of prepared color samples.
- Invert: select to invert the selected color scale.
- Steps: gradation of the color scale from
1
to10
. - Legend: symbols for color and prepared data.
- Type of scale:
Linear
— displays of values of the same order;Logarithmic
(default) — displays of a wide range of values, when the values may differ by several orders of magnitude. - Opacity: setting the opacity of the elements on the map.
- Stroke width: width in
px
from1
to25
.
-
Outline: enable to display an outline around the elements.
- Color scale: select the outline color.
- Stroke width: width in
px
from1
to25
.
-
Height: enable to display the data as a bar chart. To enable three-dimensional display format, select the 3D in the bottom-right corner of the map.
- Height basis: the parameter based on which the elements on the map will be formed. The available values depend on the selected data category.
- Height scale: column height multiplier from
0.1
to20
.
