However, the report output is static with no user interaction.\u00a0 The user may set ranges for the number of results within an administrative boundary on the map, and a color corresponding to the number within the range is used to display the result.\u00a0 The reports may be output to the browser and to Adobe PDF format.\u00a0 These maps may be scheduled.\u00a0 Maps are available for the world down to each Country.\u00a0 Only maps for Northern America are available at more detailed levels, in the case of the USA they are available down to the County level and in the case of Canada to the Provincial level.\u00a0 All issues found at levels beneath the County, such as at the Zip code level are consolidated into the number of issues within the County for display.<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 90%;\" src=\"\/extraview-media\/images\/ug\/querying_reporting\/map-shaded.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\nAdministrative boundaries indicate the level at which the map is displayed.\u00a0 These administrative boundaries are set up by the site administrator.\u00a0 Typically, four administrative levels are provided:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Boundary Level 1 &#8211; The world<\/li>\n<li>Boundary Level 2 &#8211; The Country<\/li>\n<li>Boundary Level 3 &#8211; The State \/ Province or similar within a country<\/li>\n<li>Boundary Level 4 &#8211; The City or Zip code or Post code within the State \/ Province.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>\u200b\u200bWhen creating a map within the report editor, the user chooses the levels to which the map is to be produced.\u00a0 For example, if only Boundary Level 1 is chosen, the map will be a map of the world.\u00a0 If Boundary levels 1 and 2 are selected the map will contain information at the Country level.\u00a0 If Levels 1,2 and 3 are chosen then the map will contain information down to the State \/ Province level.\u00a0 If Level 4 is added (which is typically either the City or Zip code level), then the maps will display the States and the Cities (or Zip codes) that are defined with the report filters.<\/p>\n<p>The user may set the ranges for the colors according to how many issues they expect within each range.\u00a0 The color of the shading may be selected.<\/p>\n<p>In addition the user may select to display a table of results, the count of issues within each administrative boundary and labels may be turned on and off.\u00a0 A legend displaying the ranges of the counts may be turned on and off.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Heat maps<\/strong>.\u00a0 These maps also allow the user to perform a query and display a map that indicates a count of issues that occur at each location. However, the report output is static with no user interaction.\u00a0The user may set a color for the results displayed on the map, and a point with the color is drawn at the location.\u00a0 The reports may be output to the browser and to Adobe PDF format.\u00a0 These maps may be scheduled.<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 90%;\" src=\"\/extraview-media\/images\/ug\/querying_reporting\/map-heat.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\nHeat maps are produced in a very similar manner to shaded maps, but as a single point represents each issue, only a single color may be selected.\u00a0 The only exception is that there is no legend, as there is no need with one point representing one issue.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Creating Geospatial Reports<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li>From the Report screen, click <strong>New geospatial report<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>The report editor will look similar to this if the Interactive heat map option is selected:<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 90%;\" src=\"\/extraview-media\/images\/ug\/querying_reporting\/geospatial-report-editor.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li>If you have selected a shaded map or heat map, the<strong> Map Settings<\/strong> have additional prompts.\u00a0 These ask you to set the administrative level for the output.\u00a0 The administrative levels are set by your administrator, but they are typically:\n<ul>\n<li>Level 1 &#8211; The World<\/li>\n<li>Level 2 &#8211; The Country<\/li>\n<li>Level 3 &#8211; The State or Province<\/li>\n<li>Level 4 &#8211; The City or the Zip \/ Postal Code<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Level 1 is always set at the World.\u00a0 If only this is selected, then you will see a map of the world<\/li>\n<li>Level 2 is the Country level and this implies that you will see a map of the World, with Country boundaries.\u00a0 Level 2 is usually selected as there is little point in seeing a map where only the issues in the entire world are selected and counted<\/li>\n<li>Level 3 is typically set to the State \/ Province.\u00a0 If you have selected a filter for your issues with the USA or Canada as the value for the Country, this implies that you will see a map of the USA or Canada, broken into States or Provinces<\/li>\n<li>Level 4 is typically either City or Zip\/Postal code administrative level.\u00a0 An example is that if you have selected:\n<ul>\n<li>Level 1 = The World<\/li>\n<li>Level 2 = Country<\/li>\n<li>Level 3 = City<\/li>\n<li>Filter 1: Country = USA<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"rteindent1\">You will generate a map of each of the States within the USA.\u00a0 With a shaded map, each State will display the County boundaries (the lowest level of map available) and with each County containing shading that represents how many issues are counted within each County<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>If you use the settings in the previous bullet point to generate a heat map, the same maps will be generated, but with a colored dot within each County showing the location of each issue found at that location<\/li>\n<li>Error handling &#8211; It is possible that your issues may contain incorrect or missing values for the latitude and longitude.\u00a0 In these cases the values may not be mapped, or be mapped in the wrong place.\u00a0 If the coordinate values for latitude and longitude are missing or cannot be placed on a map, ExtraView will display a count of these incorrect values at the bottom of the map.\u00a0 If the coordinates do not match a filter that you have set, but are valid for the administrative level you have selected, then more than one map may be generated.\u00a0 For example with these settings:\n<ul>\n<li>Level 1 = The World<\/li>\n<li>Level 2 = Country<\/li>\n<li>Level 3 = City<\/li>\n<li>Filter 1: Country = USA<\/li>\n<li>Filter 2: State = California<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"rteindent1\">if data values for latitude and longitude exist within the filters, but do not exist within California, maps for these states will also be generated<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>If more than one set of fields in your installation has been configured to store the values for latitude and longitude, then you need to identify which fields you are going to use for the report you are generating.\u00a0 The report editor will display an extra section to allow you to pick which latitude and longitude fields to use for the report:<br
