Map Location

Hello, 

 

I have a data set with two colums, as seens in the image.

I want to represent United Kingdom Regions on the maps for example South East of england in one shade, North East of England in another and so on. I have concatenated the two columns and also added United Kingdom at the end. However, the maps are still not giving me what i am looking for.

 

Also, if I add England at the end of South, North, etc, they are all mapping the same area on the map. They are all layering up. 

 

Can you help me this problem?

 

Thank you,.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

At first, you need to set the field data category as "Place".

Then use ArcGIS Map visual. Put Region in the “location” and put Country in the “Color”. Click Edit.

Return to report.
