Histogram

The histogram component visualizes the distribution of numeric data and enables interactive range filtering. This is particularly useful for exploring patterns in continuous data like prices, distances, or timestamps, and allows users to filter the map to specific ranges of interest.

Example

Interaction

Click and drag on the histogram to select a range of values. This will filter the map to show only data within that range. Click outside the selected range to clear the filter.

Configuration Options

Title

Text to be shown as the histogram title. Used to label what the distribution represents.

Subtitle

Additional descriptive text shown below the title. Can be used to provide context or instructions about interacting with the histogram.

Data Source

Select which data source the histogram should use. This must be one of the data sources already added to your map.

Measure Field

The numeric field to analyze and display on the x-axis. This must be a numeric field from your selected data source. For example:

  • Price values
  • Distances
  • Ages
  • Transaction amounts
  • Time durations

INFO

If you don't see a numeric field in your dataset listed as a measure, it is possible that it was mistakenly assigned a string data type. You can check this by looking in the data sources menu.
