Creating a Map widget<br />
Prerequisites<br />
The dataset for the map widget must meet the following requirements:<br />
• Place the attribute or attributes containing the geographical information<br />
on the rows. The attributes must provide this information in one of two<br />
ways:<br />
To provide the geographical information using attributes, you must<br />
provide one of the following:<br />
– One attribute that contains the latitude of each location <strong>and</strong> one<br />
attribute that contains the longitude of each location. For example,<br />
you can provide an attribute that has been assigned the Latitude<br />
geo role <strong>and</strong> an attribute that has been assigned the Longitude geo<br />
role.<br />
– One attribute that provides geographical information for each<br />
location as a point.<br />
To provide the geographical information using attribute forms, you<br />
must provide one of the following:<br />
– One attribute, which provides the latitude <strong>and</strong> longitude of each<br />
location using separate attribute forms. For example, you can<br />
provide an attribute that has been assigned the Country, State, Zip<br />
Code, City, or Location geo roles.<br />
– One attribute that provides geographical information for each<br />
location as a point, using a single attribute form.<br />
If<br />
you are using attribute forms, be sure that the attribute<br />
forms containing the geographical information are visible in<br />
the grid. Right-click the header of the attribute, point to<br />
Attribute Forms, then select the attribute forms you want to<br />
display.<br />
