14. Dashboard mapping example
‘Florida Only’
‘States and Counties by FIPS Code

15. MSTR Desktop mapping example, all FIPS
For performance reasons, filter the data, the limit is depending on browser rendering in web
FYI, it took 2 minutes to render all FIPS points, 3142 counties, in Desktop

16. Data Import
Keyfields such as county_nam (in the florida example) needs to be imported with Geography set to none

17. ESRI Map Format Properties (VI) dashboard
The county name attribute is added as a Geo Attribute. In the format properties of the ESRI map you can select the custom created boundaries.
