Hello,
How can I assign a dataset as a map so that I can create a map in Enterprise Guide?
Thank you,
Nicol
This is a complicated subject. Can you be more specific about your goal. Have you worked with any of the SASMAPS resources on the SAS.com?
I have two variables, states and percentage share of the U.S. population, and would like to create a map to show the data.
This is not a feature of Enterprise Guide (EG) technically, but of SAS, which will work in EG. PROC GMAP is one of the tools you will use. On this page I saw a map of South America, it could be the type of map you are looking for. There's a lot of flexibility in the representation of data displayed in a map made through SAS, so if you need more help, you can offer more specifics to the board about the map you are envisioning to get help.
I would like to create a heat map, see sample below. Thanks
State Percentage
Alabama 2%
Kansas 4%
Florida 6%
You want a choropleth map. That's a new word for me too. I'd rather call them heat maps.
