Title: Active Report: Filter Dynamic Map
Post by: Universe1418 on 18 Mar 2016 07:53:03 AM
Hi,

I have this active report requirement to filter a dynamic map visual by manager name from a data drop down list which has team members from different countries however the dynamic map only allow container selection.

Is this possible to accomplish? Thanks!

Best Regards,

We can do this by using Data Deck. Select data deck and use master detail to filter the map.

I had the same problem, and solved it by using the RAVE-visualization map. You will have to embedd your coordinates first using the Cognos visualization customizer. This is tricky, but it is worth it: the RAVE map works perfectly fine for me. Container Filters can be set, and the performance is much better than with the "old" dynamic maps...

Hello,

I have a requirement where I have different names for districts such as MidWest TN and Northeast TN and Alabama.
In regular chart we can define in the dictionary properties, but how can I do this in RAVE Dynamic Map.
How should I relate them to a dynamic map using coordinates in RAVE?

Thanks

To customize the RAVE map, you need to embedd geometric coordinates in GeoJSON-Format. To relate your data to the geometrics, you will have to set a name for every district. Take a look at a GeoJSON example (like this http://geojson.org/ (http://geojson.org/)) to understand what I mean.

I would also recommend to have a look at the attached example, a customized map of the USA (all credits to user Papave). This one helped me a lot.
