Hi,

i dont see Heat Maps to be realized in Cognos 8 as native feature. In Cognos 10.2.1, the rave engine brought this new style of visualization to cognos.
An option might be to work with the map manager and import some schema maps..for further information take a look at
this older post - http://www.cognoise.com/index.php?topic=9542.0
or this site http://www.en.businessmaps.cz/include.php?page=schemamaps

What you want and what is available seem like two different things. If you want heat maps, either upgrade to Cognos 10.2.1 and use a visualization, or buy a copy of the MapInfo software and create your own heat map using that.
