Hi,

If you want you could try out Idevio Maps as an alternative to Google Maps, it's a faster, more interactive way to use maps within Qlikview. Main benefits are:

  • Fast map with dynamic zoom and pan.
  • Client side rendering, handles thousands of objects with ease.
  • Plug and play, easy to setup and configure.
  • Extendable, the extension serves as a starting point.
  • World coverage, street level for many areas.

IdevioMaps are available to Qlikview 10 as an extension object.

Visit www.idevio.com for more info and demo (logon on with demo demo).

Hi,

I am new to using Google maps on Qlikview. I was going through the help documents suggested above, but got stuck right in the beginning! My problems are as follows:

1) I have Qlikview 10 personal edition on my sysytem. Will the google map feature not work on this version?

2) When we have to sign up for the google maps API key, they ask for the URL of the website on which google maps would be used. Could you all please help me with what website do we mean here? Because I have to use it on my personal edition of Qlikview!

Looking forward to reply here!

Many Thanks,

Ritika

Hi,

    First thing, it doesnt mean that if you have the personal edition, google map will not work. Personal edition have full functionality except that you can not open the document which are created by other user on other computer.

 

    Have a look at the search result on this link for more help.

    Hope this will help.

Hi All,

GIS/Maps Analytics in QlikView is a very interesting topic indeed.

However, there are many technical limitations in using Google Maps (GMaps) to display QlikView KPI indicators. First of all, the drill-down, pan and selection capabilities are quite limited. Moreover, you cannot display several indicators at the same time and on the same map (background + foreground indicators), you are also limited to draw bubbles and therefore you cannot display pie/bar charts nor "real" heat maps. Finally, you cannot display QlikView KPIs on specific Sales/Business Areas with GMaps such as the Bricks in the Pharmaceutical sector (Brick = aggregation of zipcodes).

On top of that, there are also a few "commercial" aspects to be considered since many QlikView customers & channel partners use GMaps API "FREE" Key inside their QlikView server or rich client without complying with GMaps license terms...Indeed, for "professional internal use" (intranet, extranet or internet with username/password authentication to QlikView application), you must buy GMaps API "Premier" which costs about 10,000 $ USD per year or 8,500 euros per year + possible extra fees depending upon the total number of daily hits.

A few alternatives exist such as Open Street Map (totally FREE) or other WMS/TMS services. I suggest you to have a look at our new mapping extension for QlikView 11 SR1 namely "GeoQlik v11.6":

http://www.geoqlik.com/en/geoqlik-for-qlikview/geoqlik-v11.html

Please find hereafter a few screenshots of GeoQlik V11.6 using WMS/TMS services to display QlikView KPIs:
