Create a visual geographical map to select filter areas

[Yoeri]

Hi all,

I have a question regarding app engine studio. I am asked to create an application that filters data of a huge data set. One of the filters in the geo location. Since it is important for the end user to know which countries are laying around the targeted country, a world map is wanted that shows every country and is preferrably clickable to turn the geo filter on and off for that particular country. Multiple countries might be selected. 

I know this might be a challenge but I hope that this is possible in AES, maybe with the UI builder. Can anyone help me out here? Any tips are welcome. If you need more clarification please let me know.

Hi @Yoeri 

Looks like interesting use case. You can use the map type also please provide some screen shot to visualize your problem statement.

Hi AG,

Thanks for the response. To give you a better idea, I want create a process where the first step is to filter a big stack of accomodation data by selecting an area (1 or more countries). 

I would like some advice on where to start with this (e.a. AES or UI Builder) and how to create this geo map that applies filters.

Hi @Yoeri 

If I understood correctly, you want toc create an app via AES.

- In AES you need to create a table first

- In table create field store data like Location etc.

- then create a report and add that report on dashboard.

- On dashboard you can use interactive filter.

- You can use Link Type as Map to open the records.
