Map Chart

Hey Grace,

Here is another idea. You could use the DataWrapper website (free to create an account) to display the image with the postal codes and use an IFrame widget within Analytics to display the map image. However, you must be ok with others possibly seeing the data. Technically, anyone could potentially find the data on their website (at least on the free version of it).

You get the postal code list for the area you want from the website and then upload the values you want for each postal code to display. You then edit your map (choose colors and even add city names) and add the link to it as an IFrame widget within Analytics. The maps are zoomable. You can also hover over a postal code to see the value for each.

Here is an example using some old data I did as a proof of concept.

Ooh! This is neat.  You can upload a number and a postcode to keep it pretty anon. Also it has a surprising number of maps like detailed Australia and New Zealand.

I got the idea from an Analytics Coffee meeting last year. I can't remember who suggested the DataWrapper website, but it was key in completing the project.  Whomever you are, you deserve the props. I think all I did was think of using the IFrame widget in Analytics to display it.
