Hi

I want to display the data in map according to the postal code.

when I search the postal code in Google map I get the region in red boundary like this:-

Is it possible in lumira to show data in map on the basis of postal code.?

Hello.

What you are looking for is called geocoding.

This is something that can be costful in terms of performance when done on the fly, and relies on APIs which are not free as far as I know (even if you use professionnaly Google one's like in your example).

However, it's mostly use with adresses more than cities.

If you want to display cities that are not embedded by default in native geomaps, you could go with Galigeo extension like Tom said. It let you add any custom geodata and map any KPI on it in Lumira.

Feel free to contact me by MP if you need more info on this.

One way is to take the postal/zip codes, convert them to latitude/longitude (using an Online converter such as Online KML converter – batch geocoder | MapsData ) and then you can use the maps in Lumira by first creating a geographic hierarchy based on latitude and longitude:

I did the same.

I used latitude and longitude option to show data, its working it shows the data as per the exact location.

But I wanted the region to be like Google map screen short which i shared.

Is there a way to do that?

Maybe an extension might do it - see GitHub - SAP/lumira-extension-viz: lumira

Have a look here for a more user-friendly overview of the extensions:

I'm currently investigating Galigeo, might also be interesting to you:
