Best Map Visualisation to use

Hi Everyone

 

I want to show some sales related info to my client. I have the following data:

-Sales of products

-list of cities where sales are made

-Sales of each product in each city

 

I want to know which will be the best map visual that I can use to show the following analysis:

-Sales city wise(Showing which city has the best sales)

-Sales of each product city wise(showing which city has the best sales for that product)

-Sales of every product city wise(Showing a comparison of every product sold for every city)

 

Do post the images of the visualisations.

 

Note: There are more than 100 products so the maps showing comparison don't show the values clearly they get all mixed up.

 

Thanks and regards

Rohit

Without playing with your data, I would say you could possibly map total sales per city, then filter by product using a slicer.

 

For your third requirement, do you want to know which city is selling the most/least of a certain product or which products are selling the most in a certain city? These would be two different visuals and your probably best going down the bar/column chart approach. You could try a tree map, but its likely to be too busy. You could also exprimement with TopN filtering to decease the clutter.

 

Just some thoughts.

Hi Rohit,

 

I don't think the Map is good for comparison. It's a personal opinion. Because it's hard to judge which bubble is bigger.

Thanks for your reply. Yes I have obsereved that problem that is why I am asking for suggestion for which kind of visual can I use in my analysis. Also do tell me from where can I download new custom visualisations other than the "Import from marketplace" option in power bi
