Hi Experts,
I am facing trouble while plotting city data as Area layer Map.
While using State data field, Qlik Sense Area Layer map is working properly
My Client wants to represent city as Area layer & not Point Layer which I tried to give alternative
Please refer the sample dataset & let me know how can I plot city as my Area Layer map in Qlik Sense without GeoAnalytics
Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows

I had a headache once while plotting cities without GeoAnalytics, and I started to think that Qlik not have city level areas at all. So my solution was to find lowest level of administrative division of country I need and load these areas as polygons and its coordinates. For your case, you can try to use this source or any other you can find:

And there is a trickiest part - extract data you need or prepare format you can use as most of shapes format is not understandable to Qlik. KMZ file you can convert to KML with online converters and upload this to Qlik as additional source. I was using archaic approach and downloaded geojson file, opened it with notepad++, replaced features fields with additional 'tabs', saved file as text, loaded into excel and done formatting to have my data table. Loaded that table as additional source to Qlik. Both ways is requiring some time.
