Error/Bug in VA with visualization and crosstab

tsjwolf — Tue, 28 Feb 2017 09:44:42 GMT

Good day.

I have bug in VA with visualization and crosstab.

This is gameplay.

I use file "INSIGHT_TOY_COMPANY_2012", which is sample file with VA.

I have added data from Customer to "Facility Hierarchy" that I can see which "Customers" are working with Single Facility.

I copy Category "Customer" to "Customer Geo".

I chose "Category" for "Customer Geo" from

"Geography" -> "Custom",

"Latitude" -> "xyCustomer Lat",

"Longitude" -> "xyCustomer Lon", "

Coordinate Space "->" World Geodetic System (WGS84) "

Then in "Facility Hierarchy" I added CustomerGeo.

In the visualization "Facility Analysis" in "Facility Hierarchy" I have chosen "North America" -> "United States" -> "Montana" -> Billings and I see that there's in Billings various "FacilityEfficiency" Different "bubble size".

With Button „Export Data“ wir get Excel-CSV-Data:

With „Cross Table“ I get Data:

But I have tested original file of "INSIGHT_TOY_COMPANY_2012" with SAS.

PROC SQL;

CREATE TABLE WORK.QUERY_FOR_INSIGHT_TOY_COMPA_0002 AS

(COUNT(t1.Customer)) AS COUNT_of_Customer

All these facilities have the same "Facility Efficiency", which is 85%

VA3.png and VA4.png is the photos, how to make "CustomerGeo".

I think maybe there's error or problem or bug in the calculation in VA.

I do not know how to find solution.

Hi tsjwolf,

Thanks for posting your situation to the SAS Visual Analytics Community! I checked on this and SAS Technical Support is actively working on a solution and will continue to be in touch on their progress.

Many thanks,

Anna

I just came here from your LinkedIn post. Just to be clear - is the error you describe in your LI post as a 'gross arithmetical error' the loss of precision after the 12th decimal, in cases when there is not a format applied to the result? If so, this just looks like a floating point issue to me.

I'm just trying to understand whether I'm missing something obvious, as I'm not a statistician.
