Map view

The Map view provides a spatial visualization and timeline of object information for a single investigation.

The Map view is available on the Details page. Use the Filter icon Filter to control the types of data that you want to display in this view. For example, you can show and hide business object containers, such as accounts, events, and transactions. If the investigation does not have data of a particular type, the filter for that type is not displayed.

 1  Switch views to change how business objects are displayed. The default views are Card, Map, Network Graph, and Relationships. If the selected investigation has no relationships, the Relationships link is disabled.

 2  To adjust the size of the map and focus on a specific area, use the Zoom icons Zoom icons or click and drag the map to pan the view. Alternately, click Collapse Section icon Collapse Section icon on the horizontal bar to maximize space. You can also click and drag the map to pan the view.

 3  Objects related to an investigation are displayed at their geospatial coordinates. Viewing data in this way can reveal relationships, patterns, and trends between objects that might not be obvious in another form, such as a list. Click an object to view its details. If an object does not have location information that is associated with it, it does not appear on the map. Notice that the timeline (shown in callout  5 ) moves to display the time frame that is associated with the selected object.

 4  The taskbar contains actions that you can perform, including Create Investigation icon Create Investigation, Tasks icon Tasks, Details icon Details, and Filter icon Filter icons. For information about these tasks, see Related tasks at the end of this topic.

 5  Click an entry in the timeline to display property details. The timeline shows a bar when time that is associated with an object is more than a single point in time. Note that timeline objects are stacked in the view. Click and slide the view to see objects out of the view range. You can also click an object on the timeline to open the Details flyout pane for that object.
