I’m looking to build district-wise heat maps for India. I’m able to plot points and also use grids but how to create district-wise heat maps (need boundary of district to be shown and filled with colour of the heat.
Hey
Once you have the shapefile you can use this Discourse article to see how to convert it to a TopoJSON format file.
You will then be able to drag the TopoJSON file in the instance (Under the Other files).
Now that the file with your custom map is in the instance, you can define a map_layer_name
which will ‘connect’ one of your Looker dimension to a property key in the JSON file.
I’ve created a map_layer but how to connect my data with it? what should be the field name?
Hey
Once you know which fields to pair you can follow this article here which will show you how to define a map_layer_name
and connect it to your field in the dimension in LookML.
