4 Exploring Your Data with Visual Insight Analyses Report Services Document Analysis Guide • Displaying the data in an interactive visualization, such as a Heat Map or Graph Matrix (for a full list of visualizations, see Visualizations in analyses, page 144) • Quickly switching between different visual representations of the data For instructions to view an analysis, see Running and viewing analyses, page 151, which also includes instructions for some of the tasks listed above. Visualizations in analyses A visualization is a visual representation of the data in a Visual Insight analysis, such as a grid or graph. Visualizations provide multiple ways to display and interact with the data from the analysis's dataset. Each visualization is displayed on a separate tab in the analysis. You can click the tab of a visualization to display it. The different types of visualizations available for analyses are: • Grid visualization: You can display data in an interactive grid, allowing users to pivot, sort, move, drill, filter, and perform additional manipulations on data displayed in the grid. (See Analyzing data in a Grid visualization, page 145 for an example.) • Graph visualization: You can display the data in a graphical format and choose between a variety of different graphs, such as an area graph, line graph, or pie chart. (See Analyzing data in a Graph visualization, page 146 for an example.) • Graph Matrix visualization: You can display the data in a chart containing one graph for every combination of the data that you specify, allowing users to examine the data for each combination individually. (See Analyzing data in a Graph Matrix visualization, page 146 for an example.) • Google Map visualization: You can display the data as geographical locations on a map, then change the color, size, and display of markers based on the value of a metric, to allow users to quickly grasp relationships between different locations. (See Analyzing data in a Google Map visualization, page 149 for an example.) • Heat Map visualization: You can display the data as a combination of colored rectangles. Each rectangle represents an attribute element, and is colored and sized according to the value of metrics in the visualization, allowing users to quickly grasp the state and impact of a large number of 144 Visualizations in analyses © 2012 MicroStrategy, Inc.

Analyzing data in a Grid visualization A Grid visualization displays attributes and metrics in a tabular layout. For example, the Grid visualization shown below contains revenue, cost, and profit data for each Call Center in a Region. Total profit data is calculated and displayed for each region in the grid. Profit values of less than $100,000 are displayed using a red background, while values of greater than $400,000 are displayed in green. You can quickly interact with data in the grid to customize your view of the information displayed in the visualization, as described below: • Sort attribute elements or metric values in ascending or descending order, or use multiple conditions to sort data. • Rearrange attributes and metrics, or swap the rows and columns displayed in the grid. • Filter data to display only selected attribute elements or metric values. • Add and display subtotals in the grid. For complete instructions to perform these tasks, see the MicroStrategy Web Help. © 2012 MicroStrategy, Inc. Visualizations in analyses 145
