Visualizing map responses

You can change the visual appearance of the map markings under the Visualization tab. Click the cog or settings symbol (see arrow in the image above) and a new menu will open, allowing you to change the colors, opacity, line width and circle diameter of map markings.

In the case of map points, you can also choose to visualize the data in heatmap style (pictured below), which allows you to observe the hot spots of your map response data. Although this option is only available for data in point form, you can experiment with the opacity setting for similar visualizations with line and polygon responses. 

The heatmap visualization follows the mechanism of spatial interpolation, where the values of unknown points are estimated on the basis of values of known points. Blurring reduces the visibility of the forms of individual points and increases the merging points. The radius switch determines the reach of individual data points.
