README

FusionMaps is a companion package meant to be used in conjunction with FusionCharts to render data-driven maps (over 2,000+ maps for different continents, countries, states & regions). This package contains choropleth maps that can render on both desktop & mobile, with extended functionality like city or location markers, annotations, events etc.

This package contains definition files for all the maps. Map definition files are the path files required by FusionMaps to plot a map for a particular region. Each map has its own path file.

By default, FusionCharts package only includes definition files for two maps - the World map and the USA map.

Installing FusionMaps

There are multiple ways to install FusionMaps. For general instructions, refer to this developer docs page.

Direct Download You can download zipped version here.

Using CDN Instead of downloading, you can also use FusionCharts’s CDN to access map definition files directly. See below for details

<script src="https://cdn.fusioncharts.com/fusioncharts/latest/maps/<MAP_ALIAS>.js"></script>

MAP_ALIAS is the name of the map that you're plotting, used by FusionMaps. For each map, FusionMaps has a different JavaScript alias. e.g., World Map is world etc.

Install from NPM

npm install --save fusionmaps

You will also need FusionCharts package installed on your system to use maps. You can install the same using below command

npm install --save fusioncharts

See npm documentation to know more about npm usage.

Getting Started

Easiest way to render map is to include the FusionCharts JavaScript library files and map definition file in your webpage, create <div> container and chart instance, configure the data and render. Check this HTML snippet below:

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
    <script src="https://cdn.fusioncharts.com/fusioncharts/latest/fusioncharts.js"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.fusioncharts.com/fusioncharts/latest/fusioncharts.maps.js"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.fusioncharts.com/fusioncharts/latest/maps/fusioncharts.world.js"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.fusioncharts.com/fusioncharts/latest/themes/fusioncharts.theme.fusion.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
  <div id="chart-container"></div>
  <script>
        FusionCharts.ready(function () {
            // chart instance
            var chart = new FusionCharts({
                type: "world",
                renderAt: "chart-container", // container where chart will render
                width: "600",
                height: "400",
                dataFormat: "json",
                dataSource: {
                    "chart": {
                      "caption": "Average Annual Population Growth",
                      "subcaption": " 1955-2015",
                      "numbersuffix": "%",
                      "includevalueinlabels": "1",
                      "labelsepchar": ": ",
                      "entityFillHoverColor": "#FFF9C4",
                      "theme": "fusion"
                    },
                    "data": [
                      { "id": "NA", "value": ".82", "showLabel": "1" },
                      { "id": "SA", "value": "2.04", "showLabel": "1" },
                      { "id": "AS", "value": "1.78", "showLabel": "1" },
                      { "id": "EU", "value": ".40", "showLabel": "1" },
                      { "id": "AF", "value": "2.58", "showLabel": "1" },
                      { "id": "AU", "value": "1.30", "showLabel": "1" }
                  ]
              }
            }).render();
        });
    </script>
</body>
</html>

As you can see in above example, each continent is referenced using an ID. Each map in FusionMaps has its own regions, each of which have its own ID and name. These are present in specification sheets for the map. You can find specification sheets for all maps here.

// include map definition file from maps/es folder - import mapName from fusionmaps/maps/es/<MAP_ALIAS>
import World from fusionmaps/maps/es/world

// add chart as dependency - FusionCharts.addDep(ChartType);
FusionCharts.addDep(Maps);
FusionCharts.addDep(World);

// instantiate the chart.
var chart = new FusionCharts({
  type: "world",
  renderAt: "chart-container", // container where chart will render
  width: "600",
  height: "400",
  dataFormat: "json",
  dataSource: {
    "chart": {
      "caption": "Average Annual Population Growth",
      "subcaption": " 1955-2015",
      "numbersuffix": "%",
      "includevalueinlabels": "1",
      "labelsepchar": ": ",
      "entityFillHoverColor": "#FFF9C4"
    },
    "data": [
      { "id": "NA", "value": ".82", "showLabel": "1" },
      { "id": "SA", "value": "2.04", "showLabel": "1" },
      { "id": "AS", "value": "1.78", "showLabel": "1" },
      { "id": "EU", "value": ".40", "showLabel": "1" },
      { "id": "AF", "value": "2.58", "showLabel": "1" },
      { "id": "AU", "value": "1.30", "showLabel": "1" }
    ]
  }
});

// render the chart
chart.render();
