PROC GMAP label cities on a map

Vergriffene — Tue, 19 Mar 2019 02:58:59 GMT

Hello, I wanted to label two cities in a country by using GMAP, however, with the code I wrote I could not get the right location. Could anyone help me to see what is wrong? Thank you.

I want to label Michalovce and Svidnik in Slovakia.

Codes:

goptions reset=global gunit=pct border cback=white
         colors=(black blue green red)
         ftext=swissb htitle=6 htext=3;
data mymap1;
set mapsgfk.SLOVAKIA;
keep x y;
run;
data MYMAP;
   merge mapsgfk.SLOVAKIA_attr mymap1;
   RUN;
data citystar;
   length function style color $ 8 position $ 1
          text $ 20;
   retain function 'label' xsys ysys '2' hsys '3'
          when 'a';
   set MYMAP(keep=x y IDNAME id1name);
   if (IDNAME="Michalovce" and id1name='Kosicky')
       or IDNAME="Svidnik";
   style='special'; text='M'; color='red'; size=7;
      position='5'; output;
   style='swissb'; text=IDNAME; color='green';
      size=5; position='8'; output;
run;
title "Investigated Areas in Slovakia";
pattern value=mempty color=blue repeat=49;
proc gmap data=MYMAP map=MYMAP;
   id id1name;
   choro id1name / annotate=citystar discrete nolegend;
run;
quit;

You can find some tips for using the GMAP procedure in this white paper "The Basics of Map Creation with SAS/Graph" https://support.sas.com/resources/papers/proceedings/proceedings/sugi29/251-29.pdf

The PROC GMAP documentation has an example that does exactly what you want.
