I am replicating a map I had in QlikView in Qlik Sense Desktop using its map function. I am using Qlik Sense desktop version 1.1.0+, build 31.QSMS10-CIGS. I found an interesting gap that the map function in Qlik Sense does not aggregate data based on zoom level. My map displays the number of opening positions by the geographical locations of cities around the world.
After selecting city locations with latitude and longitude values as dimension and the number of opening positions as measure, here is what I got in Qlik Sense. The map in Qlik Sense tells me that the majority of opening positions is in middle east.
But, check out the following map in QlikView using the Google Map extension. The map tells me that the majority of opening positions is in the US!!! Wow, these are quite different results.
If I zoom in the map in QlikView, it shows me the numbers of opening positions by cities.
Could this be a future enhancement in Qlik Sense? Look like Qilk Sense is missing it and it is not presenting the right BI.
Yeah that's the strange thing. You can think of the data powering the extension as a table so it might calculate a measure which produces a NULL value in the dimension (even though it should be suppressed).
If you can share a dataset, I know it can be problematic, it would be great.
You can email me at akl@qlik.com if you don't want to post it here.
