1 GeoAnalytics example: Drill-downmap

1 GeoAnalytics example: Drill-down mapWhen creating a map that hasmultiple points of data located in a wide geographical area, you can use drill-down dimensions to display your layers in a hierarchy of selection. This enables you to use different layers atdifferent levels within your map, ensuring only the most relevant information is being displayed.

This example will show you how to build a GeoAnalytics map a top-level area layer that drills down intoanother area layer and two bubble layers.

1.1 ExampleWe have a list of all historical sites in the United States National Park Service's National Register of Historicplaces. When we add the cities that historical sites are located in to a map as a bubble layer, while we getaccurate locations for our bubbles, it could be made more understandable with better organization.

How then can we organize this information better, especially if we also want to add in another bubble layercontaining airports?



To solve this problem, we will create a map of the United States of America with a layer of states that drillsdown to the county level. Drilling down to the county level will also show as data bubbles the cities thatcontain the historical sites as well as all airports for that state and the surrounding states. We will also createcustom info bubbles to provide relevant information to our users.

Initial view of map

Drilled down view of map

This example creates a map of the United States of America with distinct areas for states. When a state isselected, the map drills down to the state counties that contain cities with historical landmarks as well as allairports for that state and surrounding states are made visible. This example adds custom labels so thatcounties display a count of howmany landmarks they have and cities display a count of their landmarks aswell as the name of landmarks (if there is room in the info bubble).



DatasetThis example uses two sets of data:

l FED_LI_2015.xlsxThis data set is available from the National Park Service's National Register of Historic Places. Itcontains data about all registered history places, their location, and the federal agencies associated tothem.≤ FED_LI_2015.xlsx

When using this data set, it is recommended that you perform the following data cleanup beforeloading the data intoData manager:

1. Delete the first 5 rows of data.

2. Convert rows 6 and 7 into a single header row.

3. Delete row 4926 (STATE DEPARTMENT 81000703 American Legation 8 Zankat America(Rue d'Amerique) MOROCCOMorocco Tangier 19810108). This row contains a locationoutside of the United States, which will introduce an error into the visualizations.

l Airport dataThis table contains data for airports in the United States. It consists of each airport's International AirTransport Association (IATA) code, city, and state or territory.You must import this data into Qlik Sense by adding to a spreadsheet that you then import into QlikSense.Airport data

1.2 InstructionsOnce you have loaded the datasets into a new app in Qlik Sense, you can begin building your map. To makethe example map, you must complete the following tasks:

1. Create the drill-down dimensions.

2. Add the map layer to our sheet.

3. Add the State area layer.

4. Add theCounty area layer.

5. Add theCity bubble layer.

6. Add the Airport bubble layer.

7. Add theResource filter pane.

1. Creating the drill-down dimensionsFirst, you need to create three drill-down dimensions. This will create the relationships between State and thefieldsCounty, City, and Airport, enabling theCounty, City, and Airport layers to become visible after a statefrom the State layer has been selected.

Do the following:

1. In sheet view, click@ Edit in the toolbar.

2. Clické to display the master items.

3. ClickDimensions.4. ClickCreate new.5. Select Drill-down.6. Add the field State to the dimension.

7. Add the fieldCounty to the dimension.

8. AfterName, type State-County.9. ClickAdd dimension.



10. Add the field State to the dimension.

11. Add the fieldCity to the dimension.

15. Add the field Airport to the dimension.

16. AfterName, type State-Airport.17. ClickAdd dimension.18. ClickDone.

2. Adding themap layerThe next step is to add a GeoAnalytics map to your sheet..

Do the following:


2. Clickg to open extensions.

3. Drag and dropGeoAnalytics Map into your sheet.

3. Adding theState area layerThe first layer you add is the State area layer to which you add the dimension State-County to this layer. Youthen configure it so that the states are only visible at the first level of drill-down. In addition, you set thecountry as the United States to ensure we map to the state of Georgia rather than the nation of Georgia.

Do the following:



3. Drag and dropGeoAnalytics Area Layer into your sheet.4. Select the GeoAnalytics Area Layer.

5. Click ID.6. ClickAdd Dimension and select State-County.7. Click Layer Options.8. Set theRestric Drill Down slider to 0.9. Click Location Options.10. In the Location Source drop-down, select Dimension.11. In theCountry drop-down, select United States.12. ClickAppearance.13. Click Legend.14. Set Color Legend toCustom.



15. Clear Show Colors.16. ClickColors.17. Set Colors toCustom, select By dimension, and select 100 colors.18. Adjust the Transparency slider to half transparency.

19. Click@ Done.

4. Adding theCounty area layerNext, you add theCounty area layer. In addition to giving the layer the dimension State-County, you add alocation measure to the layer that will qualify each county to its state asmany county names are sharedacross states. You also specify in the location settings that theCounty field is anAdm 2 Area, as thiscorresponds to counties in the United States.

You also restrict the layer to be visible on all layers save for the top layer, as you only want State visible at thetop layer.

Finally, customize the info bubble using an expression to display the county name, a count of the sites in thecounty, and if there is only one site there, the name of the site.

Do the following:



3. Drag and dropGeoAnalytics Area Layer into your sheet.4. Select the GeoAnalytics Area Layer.

5. Click ID.6. ClickAdd Dimension and select State-County.7. Click Location ID.8. ClickAdd measure and type the following expression: County&','&State&',US'.9. Click Layer Options.10. Set theRestric Drill Down slider to 1-16.11. Click Location Options.12. In the Location Source drop-down, select Measure.13. In the Type drop-down, select Adm 2 Area.14. ClickAppearance.15. Click Legend.16. Set Color Legend toCustom.

17. Clear Show Colors.18. ClickColors.19. Set Colors toCustom, select By dimension, and select 100 colors.20. Adjust the Transparency slider to half transparency.21. Click Info Bubble and set Info Bubble toCustom.


22. Type the following expression: ''&County&''&'Sites: '&Count(Resource)&''&Resource.

23. Click@ Done.

5. Adding theCity bubble layerThe next layer you add is theCity bubble layer. You add State-City as the dimension and then add ameasure to qualify the cities, as some cities in different states have the same name.

You also restrict the layer to be visible on all layers save for the top layer, as you only want State visible at thetop layer.

In addition, we you add an expression so that this layer's info bubbles display the city name, a count of thesites in the city, and, if there is only one site there, the name of the site.

Do the following:



3. Drag and dropGeoAnalytics Bubble Layer into your sheet.4. Select the GeoAnalytics Bubble Layer.

5. Click ID.6. ClickAdd Dimension and select State-City.7. Click Location, Size.8. ClickAdd measure and type the following expression: City&','&State.9. Click Layer Options.10. Set theRestric Drill Down slider to 1-16.11. In theCountry drop-down, select United States.12. ClickAppearance.13. ClickShape and Size.14. Adjust theRadius slider toMin 11 - Max 11.15. ClickColors.16. Set Colors toCustom, select Single color, and select a color.17. Click Info Bubble and set Info Bubble toCustom.

18. Type the following expression: ''&City&''&'Sites: '&Count(Resource)&''&Resource.

19. Click@ Done.

6. Adding theAirport bubble layerThe final layer you add to the map is the Airport bubble layer. You add the Airport field as the dimension, asGeoAnalytics recognizes IATA codes for placement, ensuring the airports are located in their actual positionrather than just in their city.

You configure this layer so that it is not included in the auto zoom, this would prevent the map from zoomingin on state counties when a state is selected.

You also make a custom info bubble with an expression that displays the airport city's name and the airportcode. To do this, you must add the field AirportCity to the bubble layer as a measure so it can be used in theinfo bubble.

Do the following:



3. Drag and dropGeoAnalytics Bubble Layer into your sheet.4. Select the GeoAnalytics Bubble Layer.

5. Click ID.6. ClickAdd Dimension and select State-Airport.7. Click Location, Size.8. ClickAdd measure and type the following expression: AirportCity.9. Click Layer Options.10. Set theRestric Drill Down slider to 1-16.11. Clear the Include in Auto Zoom check box.

12. Click Location Options.13. In the Location Source drop-down, select Dimension.14. In theCountry drop-down, select United States.15. ClickAppearance.16. ClickShape and Size.17. In the Shape drop-down, select Triangles.18. Adjust theRadius slider toMin 11 - Max 11.19. ClickColors.20. Set Colors toCustom, select Single color, and select a color.21. Click Info Bubble and set Info Bubble toCustom.

22. Type the following expression: ''&AirportCity&''&''&Airport.

23. Click@ Done.

7. Add theResource filter paneFinally, you can optionally a filter pane containing the fieldResource. This provides you with a list of theavailable historical sites as you make selections within your map.

Do the following:

1. In the assets panel, drag and drop a filter pane into the sheet.

2. ClickAdd dimension.


3. Add a filter pane containing the fieldResource.

1.3 ResultYou now have a completed GeoAnalytics map that contains two area layers and two bubble layers. When youselect a state in your GeoAnalytics map, it should now zoom into the state's counties, where you can see thecities and airports. If you hover your cursor over the county, you should see the county name, a count of howmany historical sites are in the county, and if there is a single site, that site's name. If you hover your cursorover a city, you should see the city name, a count of howmany historical sites are in the city, and if there is asingle site, that site's name. If you hover your cursor over an airport, you should see the city name and theairport code.
