None of the polygons have an ID attribute that can be linked to a field in the data model in your qlikview document.

Open the .svg file with a text editor like notepad. You'll see there are no identifiers for the polygons. Each polygon needs an attribute with a value that also exists as a value in a field in your qlikview document. Otherwise the polygons won't be connected to the data in your qlikview document.
