MicroStrategy ONE

ESRI Map Integration

ESRI maps are one of MicroStrategy's out-of-the-box offerings. ESRI maps allow you to plot data as pie charts or density map, use ESRI shapefiles (.SHP) for custom shapes, or build affinity lines or path maps in documents. ESRI maps are supported in both dashboard and document authoring.

ESRI maps are recommended if you want to build documents, visualize networks with affinity lines, analyze data only within the United States, create density maps, or plot data as pie charts.

No warehouse or metadata information is sent to external servers other than the area names used to retrieve the polyon shapes. For details, see KB46526.

To use the cloud-based ESRI Maps offered out-of-the-box, you must first perform the following steps:

  1. Generate a Key for ESRI
  2. Configuring map visualizations
  3. (Optional) Data and Design Requirements for Mobile Maps

After, you can begin using the Map visualization in the Visualization Gallery.
