Dear everybody,
I have a database that contains institutions and their geographic location:
create table Institutions (
institution VARCHAR(255) not null,
institution_latitude FLOAT not null,
institution_longitude FLOAT not null,
impact INT not null -- some measure to visualise
);
My intention is to visualise the institutions on a Geomap in an Analyzer Report of the Pentaho User Console. For this, I have created a Data Source Model in the Penaho User Console and have added a Property with Geography Type "Lat/Long".
The problem: My geomap does not show any institutions at all.
I am wondering therefore if there is any documentation available on how to configure the Geomap? Maybe even a tutorial with a simple example?
More precisely:
Thanks a lot for any pointers or suggestions!
Kaspar

More precisely:
- Does the Geomap support showing data with lat/long coordinates? The Steel Wheels example seems to use names (and not coordinates) of places. Also, a post I have found seems to suggest that only certain names (or lat/long values?) seem to be supported – any clarifications would be welcome.
- How exactly does Geomap deal with hierarchies of places? The Steel Wheels example allows to drill into states/provinces and I am wondering how this is accomplished.
Thanks a lot for any pointers or suggestions!
