  • Strategize Your Business Activities
      duration 2 Min
    You need to present to your business strategy board members the revenue earned by your company's BizTech and FunPod brands in various cities and countries. This information is crucial for analyzing the reasons for low revenues and for planning promotional activities for these brands. Instead of presenting the revenue data in spreadsheets or charts, you want to highlight the high and low revenue values on a world map. In Oracle Analytics Cloud, you can create a map view that presents business data in the context of a map. Similar to table, pivot table, and graph views, map views enable you to visualize and manipulate data. The key difference is that a map view presents data in spatial form. When data is visualized on a map, you can easily discover regional trends and transactions that might not be obvious in tables or graphs.

  • Create a Master-Detail Linking with Your Map
      duration 10 Min
    You can present your revenue data effectively by displaying the same data at the same time in multiple views. With master-detail linking of views, you can establish a relationship between two or more views so that one view, called the master view, drives data changes in the other views, called the detail views. In this module, you create a master-detail linking between a map view and a graph view in your analysis. For example, you specify the map view as the master view and the graph view as the detail view.
