Geovisualization

Interactive visualization styles for geospatial analysis

Visualize vast data

Businesses today are coping with large amounts of data and looking for ways to transform it into action.

Geographic visualizations are becoming essential when it comes to exploring these data sets, facilitating learning and developing solutions to complex problems.

Geovisualization allows businesses to visualize analytics and display them directly on HERE maps, helping to simplify concepts and identify new patterns in geographic areas. Business can unearth value through charts and graphs, while interactively changing what data is displayed and how it’s processed.

Under the hood

The keys to any successful geographical visualization are data, location and map visualization.

Geovisualization supports the upload, storage, querying, geo-enrichment and display of customer data right onto HERE maps.

Our vast library of visualization styles comprises of choropleth, raster maps or grid maps, density or heat maps, and market maps, as well as visualization methods such as charts and graphs.
 

How Geovisualization works

Secure data hosting

Data is uploaded fast through a data manager interface or directly through the API. A sophisticated authentication mechanic protects the data from being accessed by anyone else.

Location enrichment

Once uploaded, data is processed and prepared in the HERE cloud. Latitude and longitude are derived from an address, and geo-enrichment and other attributes are added for more detail. Data can be queried and delivered for geographical visualizations.

Geovisualizing data

Data can be displayed through a variety of visualization techniques and mapping styles, all available through a set of client-side libraries. These come with powerful built-in features and can be deeply customized for tailor-made functionality.
