Mark sales areas on the map as an area

Hi,

we can currently use the map to mark orders and teams via geolocation.
I would now like to show the 3 sales areas as circles on the map.
Is this possible with surfaces?
If so, where and how do I have to create the geodata for the area?

Thank you for your Help,
Martin

Another possible solution (without installing GeoAnaltics) is creating 3 center coordinates. Then create a density layer, choose the 3 center coordinates as location. Remove the limits at in the menu Colors and set some Opacity. Set Radius to Meters and change the radius to the desired value.

Hi martinr_

I would like to help you out. Do you know the "center-"coordinates of those circles? If Yes, the you can use the TravelArea GeoOperation by Bird, loading those 3 center coordinates first. You should determine the distance from the "line" to the center point. 
After you've accomplished the TravelArea GeoOperation, you'll get 3 Polygons with the 3 circles. 

Let me know if you achieved the desired result. 

Kind Regards, 

Joost van Egmond

Hi Joost

currently it is done like this. Diagram map - Points with =GeoMakePoint(LATITUDE,LONGITUDE). I took a look at Bird. But I'm missing the Qlik GeoOperations option under Connection. Is my version perhaps too old, or how do I get it in there?

Hi Martin,

Do you use Qlik Cloud or Qlik Sense Enterprise? When you have Qlik Sense Enterprise, you should install Qlik Geo Analytics (for free) (https://help.qlik.com/en-US/geoanalytics/Content/Qlik_GeoAnalytics/GeoAnalytics-Server/Installing-Ge...). 

After you've correctly installed QGA, you can perform the QlikGeoAnalytics Operation. In below example I used the TravelAreas Operation for a Point.

Hi Joost,

 

thanks for your valuable tips. GREAT!
I tested it and will install it with the corresponding coordinates and pass it on.

Have a nice Week 🙂
