A geographic coordinate map of the United States, based on degrees of latitude
and longitude
, shows a comparison of measurement values across US States.
The following steps extend the work completed in US Zipcode Map with Bubbles,
and demonstrate how to create a map visual on the dataset Income Tax Returns. It
produces maps with bubble marks that correspond to the relative size of the measurement at
each latitude
and longitude
pair.
Supplement the dataset by uploading the datafiles us_regions.csv and zipcode-lat-long.csv into your database, and making simple joins
between income_tax_2014_zipcode.state
and us_regions.state
,
and between income_tax_2014_zipcode.zipcode
and
zipcode_lat_long.zipcode
. See Data Model: Joins.
