Put places on a map with an icon, an emoji or a photo, a label and a popup for each one. Upload a spreadsheet and publish the map for free.
A marker map places one symbol on the map for each row of your data, at the latitude and longitude you give it. The symbol can be a circle, an emoji or an image, chosen for each category, so a reader can tell the kinds of place apart without a key. Each marker can carry a name beside it and a popup with more detail. A number column can scale the markers so their area follows the value, and an inset globe shows where the view sits. It suits offices, stores, events and any list of places.
Stores, offices, events and trade partners all fit a table with one row per place.
Give each category its own emoji or image, and the legend and map explain themselves.
A popup shows a name, a figure and a link for each marker without crowding the map.
Markers sit at the coordinates you give, so places stay where readers expect them.
Totals by country or state belong on a choropleth, not on markers.
Markers overlap and hide each other. Use a heatmap or a density map.
Markers need coordinates. Add a latitude and longitude column first.
Use an arc map to join an origin and a destination.
From a spreadsheet to a published chart, step by step.
Latitude runs from -90 to 90 and longitude from -180 to 180. A swapped pair lands in the wrong place.
Rows without usable coordinates are dropped and counted under the map. Fill them in or remove them.
More than five or six symbols become hard to tell apart. Group the rare ones.
Dense areas hide names. Turn labels off or let hover reveal them.
