Miscellaneous View
The Miscellaneous View category includes unique view types that do not fit into standard data layouts but are useful for specific data visualization needs. One of the primary examples is the Map View, which is ideal for visualizing data points based on geographic locations.
Map View
The Map view allows data to be visualized using geographical coordinates (latitude and longitude), displaying items directly on an interactive map. This view is especially helpful for tracking location-based data, such as the real-time locations of assets or analyzing geographic distribution patterns.
-
Required Field Mapping:
Title– Main label for each item on the map, used as the primary identifier.Latitude– Geographic latitude for the item.Longitude– Geographic longitude for the item.
-
Optional Field Mapping:
Description– Additional details about the item, which can be displayed in map tooltips or pop-ups.
Example Use Case: A logistics team can utilize the Map view to monitor the real-time locations of delivery vehicles. By mapping each vehicle's title, location, and other optional information, they can easily track and analyze distribution efficiency and coverage.
The Miscellaneous View category is designed for use cases with unique visualization requirements, like tracking locations or representing items in a spatial context, offering users a flexible way to display data beyond traditional tabular or status-based views.
