Qlik Sense Map with Background Image - Data Preparation
I am working on a report where I have to prepare a map chart something similar to : https://help.qlik.com/en-US/cloud-services/Subsystems/Hub/Content/Sense_Hub/Visualizations/Map/map-b....
However, I am finding it difficult to prepare latitude/longitude data for my image. Could you please help suggesting an efficient and ideal way how the lat-long data could be generated for an image?
Thanks.

Hi @amitray
I know this is an old post, but perhaps this can help other people to.
I also had difficulties setting the latitude/longitude parameters on my layer background image.
This worked for me:
Imagine your image is 1500px width & 700px height you need to fill in the fields like this:
- Set the Top left corner
- Top (latitude) : 700
- Left (longitude) : 0
- Set the Bottom right corner
- Bottom (latitude) : 0
- Right (longitude) : 1500
Just keep in mind (that is the reason why I tought it didn't work) you need to put another layer on the screen (point / area layer) actually see the image.
Hope this helps other people to!
