Geolocation Groups

Key takeaways Qrvey's map charts require geolocation groups to be created at the dataset level Multiple geolocation groups are only needed for different types of locations (for example, customers vs. suppliers) Users can create geolocation groups using either geographical coordinates or address information Map charts allow drilling down to different levels of granularity without creating separate geolocation groups AWS location services power Qrvey's mapping solution

Discussed topics Creating geolocation groups Natan Cohen explained the process of creating geolocation groups at the dataset level to enable map chart functionality. Details Natan Cohen: Demonstrated accessing the address dataset and clicking on "geolocations" to create a geolocation group Natan Cohen: Explained that multiple geolocation groups are only needed for different types of locations (customers, suppliers, employees) within the same dataset Natan Cohen: Created a sample geolocation group called "customer location" Conclusion Geolocation groups are a prerequisite for using map charts in Qrvey Changes to geolocation groups don't trigger data reloading Data requirements for geolocation groups Natan discussed the different types of data that can be used to create geolocation groups. Details Natan Cohen: Explained users can either use geographical coordinates (longitude/latitude) or address information Natan Cohen: Noted that coordinate columns should be numeric with 6-7 decimal points of precision Natan Cohen: Demonstrated mapping fields like city, postal code, and address line when coordinates aren't available Natan Cohen: Showed that fields used in geolocation groups are marked with a map marker icon Conclusion Qrvey uses AWS location services for its mapping solution Address fields can be used to determine location even without explicit country information Using map charts Natan demonstrated how to build and use map charts with the created geolocation groups. Details Natan Cohen: Showed how to access map charts and select a dot map type Natan Cohen: Demonstrated dragging the geolocation group to use it in the chart Natan Cohen: Explained that users can view data at different granularity levels (city, postal code, address line) Conclusion Qrvey offers three types of map charts The same geolocation group can be used to display different levels of detail Action items Users Create geolocation groups before attempting to build map charts. Apply changes after adding geolocation groups. Consider data requirements when setting up geolocation groups (coordinates or address information).
