Overview

Elixir Repertoire Map Designer provides a graphical framework that adds a new dimension to data visualisation. Maps can be created that represent geographic areas, such as countries or regions, shops within a shopping mall or even the different departments in your office. The areas of the map are sensitive to mouse clicks, so you can use them to navigate through or filter relevant data. The areas can also be connected to data values, highlighting which sales regions performed best last quarter or which shops have the highest footfall.

Once a map has been designed, it is available in the Elixir Repository as a reusable component. This helps you ensure a consistent style and reduces maintenance across all of the analysis services that you deploy.
