Color Fill Google Map in OBIEE

Hi all,
I have a requirement to display a MapView in a OBIEE analysis with the states areas colored. I've already configured Google Maps in MapViewer and I'm able to display a single map in a analysis. The problem is: how am I going to set the borders of each state and fill the inside area and plot it over the map? Anyone have some ideia or suggestion that can help me?
TIA
William

Do you have data for boundaries in db?

  • Remove Zoom scale of Google maps in OBIEE 11g Mapviewer

    Hi,
    While integrating Google maps with OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0 , we are able to see two Zoom scales one for BI layer and another for Base map layer (Google Map).
    When we select the former Zoom scale (BI Layer) , our views have been placed in exact countries. But when we select latter one, only base map i.e., Google map is zooming without upholding the views(Color fill,Image,Bar Graph,etc.,).
    So is there any way to bring synchronization between two layers with one zoom scale.
    Kindly help me to sort out this issue.
    Thanks in advance!

    Will require backport of a fix for mapviewer (oraclemaps.js) that has to be part of the OBIEE patchset.
    Filing a bug would help the process.

  • Google Maps in OBIEE 11g (7.1)

    Hi Alll,
    I know there are lots of posts/blogs on this over net but most of them show examples with either 10g or use API v2. Following is my requirement
    1. To be able to show multiple data points (Locations) on a single map and to be able to zoom in.
    2. To do this for API V3 - so I need api v3 version of the java script code which is mentioned on various blogs
    3. We have already coded our addresses in long and lats and need to pass that using the Java code
    Can anybody please send me / point me to the code which is for API V3, passes longs and lats and render multiple points on the map. It'll be highly appreciated. It'll be great if you could send the code which you have tested and works for you.
    Thanks,
    Ronny

    Hi All,
    Can anybody please reply on this?

  • Google Map Issue in OBIEE - Subject area not getting associated

    Hi Gurus,
    We are trying to integrate Google map and OBIEE via mapviewer. We have done the following already - 
    1. Loaded World Sample data from Navteq.
    2. Configured mapviewer source and added Google map as a tile layer with the API KEY.
    3. Imported one layer (e.g. M_STATES_ABRV) in OBIEE and linked it with BI subject area (tried this step with importing other layers as well)
    4. Added background map.
    Now , in this step when we add the layer in the map, we select M_STATES_ABRV and change zoom levels. But Once we come back to main screen after Clicking OK, we see the background map is not associated with the subject area. Hence any map view report creation with this subject area fails.
    We have the tried the same theme with Oracle Maps (internal type like WORLD  MAP or DEMO MAP), it works fine. only Google Map gives this issue.
    This was not expected. Please suggest what we missed. We tried with cache clear, tile delete and recreation, service restart almost everything .
    We looked into other threads in this community, different oracle support documents - Doc ID 1485088.1,Doc ID 1346805.1 etc  and in different internet blogs -  where it's easy as child's play, but we are still out of luck.
    OBIEE version - 11.1.1.7.140527
    Environment- windows server 2008 R2
    Please suggest.
    Regards,
    Krish

    I have found the solution: You need to *select* zoom levels for the BI Layer.  When a BI Layer is added to a background map, by default no zoom layers are selected.  Once a zoom level is selected, the BI Layer will save.

  • Issue in OBIEE 11G Google Maps

    Hi All,
    Am able to use the Google maps in OBIEE 11G and built the Barchart that should show X-Axis : Cities , Y-Axis : Measure for each State . But the problem is when i click on one state , it is showing all the cities and metric in the map instead of showing only corresponding cities of particular state.
    Please clik on https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B3A03HtPEX65YjExZDNlMDEtOTc3NC00ZGE0LThhMmMtMTRmZmRlNjAxZDU3 for image .

    On the left hand corner you will see list of views in the report, on a basic analysis you will see title and table view. Select the table view and click on edit ( pencil symbol ). A new page opens up, scroll down a little and you will see the columns included and columns excluded sections. Make sure the column that you are trying to add to the report is not present in the excluded list. If it is, drag and drop it above.
    Answer points if question is answered.

  • Google maps issue in obiee

    Hi
    I am trying to integrate google maps in obiee. I have generated API key using my local url(http://owner-pc:9704/) from code.google.com and using it.
    My issue is when i generate a report in the narrative section, its only displaying a blank image saying
    " retriving results..please wait" ....................but doesnt display anything
    I am following the same example provided in this article
    http://www.artofbi.com/index.php/2009/07/obiee-and-google-maps-integration/
    Appreciate your response
    Thanks

    I think there are some bugs in the Google recent updates. I am on GB on Xperia ray and yet i have Play store always running (sneakily) in the background (takes up7-9MB ram) and usually there is one Google map running (i dont know why, i hate that) and i have seen up to 3 maps running sometimes consuming 15-20MB ram!
    I think the bottomline for all companies (Sony,google) is to test out the software thoroughly and not be hasty in just sending updates (which are pointless). In this aspect i have alot of respect for Apple.

  • Over query limit while integrating google maps

    Hi
    I am getting over query limit error when i want to display more than 11 records while integrating google maps in obiee. I can display upto 11 records in the map.If i increase the row limit its throwing the error.
    Error: Geocode was not succesfull for the following reason: Over_query_limit
    How to overcome this error,in order to fetch more than 11 records in the map?
    I have only two columns in the report
    state code || No.Of Customers
    In narrative view i have the following code
    Replace ?!? with <
    Prefix part
    ?!?script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false">

    ?!?div id="map_canvas" style="width: 800px; height: 700px" > ?!?/div>

    This gives the count as per the state in the google map, if we click a state it will show us the count, but its holding good only for 11 records in the map
    Appreciate your response

    I haven't yet used the tag. It looks quite interesting.
    I had a look at the
    cf_googleMap
    Documentation out of curiosity. Apparently, putting
    <cf_googlemapshow/> at the end, just before the closing body
    tag, solves a number of Javascript issues.

  • OBIEE 11g . Transparency of the color fill in Mapviewer

    Hi,
    How to set transparency level of the color fill in Mapviewer integrated with OBIEE 11g?
    Thank you for your time!
    Pavel

    Hi,
    Go into the styling rules of your map in MapBuilder and change the render style to a darker color, so when it is rendered over the map in OBIEE it becomes opaque.
    See if this helps you

  • OBIEE 11g - Maps with Google Map as Source

    Hi Experts,
    Am trying to create some maps using information from Google Maps as source.
    In Map-viewer console, I have added Google Maps as the source in 'Manage Map Tile Layer' and was able to see the base map when I did a 'View Map/Manage Tiles'.
    However when I logged into analytics and tried to import layers, am not able to see anything.
    Is there anything that I am missing out. Thanks for any pointers.
    - Sujana

    Spatial data has to be setup in the database to get layers. I tried using some of the layers from the spatial data I had and then could get a map with google map as the background map.
    But couldn't find any easy alternate to fetch layer information.

  • Safari 8 hover does not work over google map location pins

    OS X 10.10.1,   Safari 8,  Java 8-25
    I have always had little odd things not work when using safari on a large % of websites I visit,  the latest issues are
    no response when hovering over google map location pins, travel site calendars not opening or responding to mouse, drag and drop
    show the item being dragged several inches away from the actual pointer, some links don't respond, missing items
    or odd layout with print or pop ups going off the screen on some website pages, zooming in and out does not help. I have none
    of these issues when using Firefox or Chrome. Been using Safari for 4 years now.

    Have you tried a PRAM and an SMC reset? They're longshots, but don't take long to try.
    PRAM: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    SMC: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Have you run Apple Diagnostics from the disc(s) that shipped with the computer?
    Since the problem occurs in all browsers, it still sounds like a video hardware or video RAM or maybe a software issue having to do with layers and rendering.
    The map layers aren't getting rendered, or if rendered, aren't getting displayed.
    Do you have any browser add-ins? Pop-up blockers?
    Since you have two video chipsets, it's possible that might be related to the issue.
    This non-Apple website talks about switching between chipsets on the various MacBook models so equipped, and points to a free 'donationware' program for the menubar that lets you easily switch between chipsets:

    Trying to think of other software that might help pinpoint the problem, does the iPhoto Slideshow 'Shatter' template work? Working properly, it 'shatters' images into several color layers and rotates them in and out to build and deconstruct photos.

  • Google maps does not work

    I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on my Macbook Pro. No matter which browser I use, Google maps will not render the map detail - instead it just shows the target location with a letter 'A' or whatever, but the background map is just grey with no features. It  makes no difference how long I wait either. I have used the various features in browsers to clear out the 'junk' and have used 'reset safari' when in that browser, Still no joy. I have had the MBP for two years and I expect this simple feature to work as it does on all my Windows PC's and iPhone. I am at my wits end and feel somewhat duped into the Apple world by the triumph of 'form' over function. I want to love my MAC but it aggravates me instead because I spend too much time trying to figure out how to get basic features working when in fact they should work first time without user intervention.
    Has anyone got a 5 minute fix for this ridiculous fault please? I cannot upload a screen grab either because (1) this Apple forum wont allow upload of my screengrabbed jpgs of tiffs, or (2) my MBP wont allow it (despite them being within the expected size limit). Another spectacular own goal by Apple.

  • View maps on OBIEE 11g Dashboard

    Hi All,
    My Installation: I have OBIEE 11g installed on Windows Server 2008. My Database is SQL Server 2012.
    My Requirement: Display maps in OBIEE Dashboard.
    Firstly, from the various posts available online, I have understood that the OBIEE 11g MapViewer works ONLY with Oracle database. If this is true then I need another way to view maps because I don't have Oracle DB.
    Can I have Google maps on my OBIEE dashboard ?
    Any suggestions/advice will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks n Regards

  • Default Colors Limit for Graph in OBIEE 11g

    Hi, I'm using OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.6.6)
    When I use a graph (either bar or pie), I notice that OBIEE only has 12 default colors to use in the graph. So it starts from blue, red, and so forth, until the 12th color, then for the 13th color it will use the same blue again, and so forth.
    The problem is that my column values are more than 12 (it could be 20, it could be 30, etc). So, the repeating colors doesn't make any sense for the graphs.
    Could somebody please advise me on how to increase the default number of default colors used by OBIEE (so that it will be like 50 default colors set automatically by OBIEE, just in case)?
    Thanks so much!

    Hi,
    type HexaDecimal colors in google you will find n number of colors with the code number, just use this color codes by adding# before every code in the column format properties.
    for ex: #ccc99
