Hi I need some assitance using the Filled Map visual.
I am importing data from Excel and for reference I am using Manitoba Canada for all my data and referencing location by postal code.
In my excel I have the following:
NAME, COUNTRY, PROVINCE, CITY, POSTAL, LEVEL (possible values 1-5):
Sample Data looks as this:
| Name | Level | Country | Province | City | Postal |
| Able | 1 | Canada | Manitoba | Winnipeg | R2C 0A1 |
| Baker | 2 | Canada | Manitoba | Winnipeg | R2C 0A1 |
| Charles | 1 | Canada | Manitoba | Winnipeg | R3J 2P1 |
| David | 2 | Canada | Manitoba | Winnipeg | R3J 2P1 |
| Edward | 1 | Canada | Manitoba | Winnipeg | R3M 0P7 |
| Frank | 2 | Canada | Manitoba | Winnipeg | R3M 0P7 |
| George | 2 | Canada | Manitoba | Winnipeg | R3M 0P7 |
| Henry | 3 | Canada | Manitoba | Winnipeg | R3M 0P7 |
| India | 1 | Canada | Manitoba | Dauphin | R7N 3B3 |
| Jack | 1 | Canada | Manitoba | Dauphin | R7N 3B3 |
| Kim | 2 | Canada | Manitoba | Dauphin | R7N 3B3 |
| Larry | 2 | Canada | Manitoba | Dauphin | R7N 3B3 |
The visual for this data is attached.
When I hover over the colored part for the level within each postal code I'd like to see a count. How do I do that?
Also is there a way to interactivly work with the map to show only level 1' for instance?
Part 1: Level count
If I understood you correctly, you'd like to count the number of levels for each postal code. If so:
1) Create a measure, Level count
2) Level count = count (level)
3) Drag count to tooltips
Part 2: Filter of levels.
You can do that by clicking on one of the legends at the top of the map. For example, click on the black circle. In your map, any bubble that is not black will be shadowed.
