Hi All,
I really need some help with an problem.
Essentially I need to incorporate a dynamic map/image over which I can plot a series of lat and long data. Since this will be on internal servers is there a way to plot such an object without acquiring a license for using google maps etc?
I have read a few forums on using open street maps, however, there is no step by step instructions.
If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Calum
Hi
This?
Also i remember we need to have API Key from google.
Maps in QV is not straight forward. If you are seriously thinking of maps, you can give QS a try
Hi Calum naish,
Have you got any luck for the same? I'm asking because my requirement is also the same.
Without using any license/purchasing the same for now, I want show some demo on Maps in QV but haven't found any helpful post on community many are there but that are too old.
Thanks,
Neha
Hi,
I found the easiest method was to download an extension such as:
https://github.com/brianwmunz/svgReader-QV11
Or
http://branch.qlik.com/#!/project/56728f52d1e497241ae69780
Thanks for Prompt reply.
Yeah, I gone through this post but at some point they mentioned about using gmap_key & I don't have the key value.
By any chance is it possible in another way?
For both the extensions you do not need a gmap key
You can get your free API key
Get API Key | Maps JavaScript API | Google Developers
Once you have the key, you can paste it in your .js script to make the maps run.
Or use SVG map extension which may require 3 or 4 digit code for state/country/city etc to populate...
Search for SVG in Qlik community
Hello.
Have you find what you want ?
Like you, I can't find any solution to implement easly a map (with marker and plot).
I think, to use GoogleMap API, we need a licence key; and the new google's politic is to pay to have some web tile's wab server.
Maybe SVG extension : but I have to put some plot ; and I think that with SVG, we only put some colored geographic area.
I've tried to implement Open Street Map, but I have to create a QlikView extension to implement javascript connexion to OSM (or other tile's server) ; maybe, there is some QlikView extension for OSM (but I don't find recent one).
Somebedy have some easly way to do ?
