JMP Product Manager Jeff Perkinson presented the April 14 Mastering JMP session, Using Geographic and Custom Maps. I divided his demo into three parts for you to watch at your leisure. By default, JMP installs map files in a Maps directory. Each map consists of two JMP data files with
On March 10 in her Mastering JMP live webcast, Dara Hammond demonstrated techniques for visualizing data using dynamic graphics. She shared ways to modify, customize, export and animate graphs; manipulate graph axis settings, points and display characteristics; and use the shape and geographic mapping functions to plot results. As promised,
If you followed my series of blog posts on background maps in JMP 9, you may have read the blog post titled, All About Background Maps in JMP 9: NASA Server and Web Map Service. In that blog post, I discussed two of the options for background maps that use
This blog post is the final one in a series about image-based background maps in JMP 9. Part I of the series introduced background maps, which are a new feature in JMP. It explained why background maps are useful and showed how to access a background map through the user
7,000 -- that's the big number everyone was talking about last week in Paris. 7,000 what? 7,000 Euro/m², that’s the average price prospective buyers now have to pay for properties in Paris. If you are not used to m², 1 m² is roughly equal to 10.8 ft², and whichever way
Many of you are already aware of the new powerful mapping capabilities in JMP 9 that enable you to visualize geographic-based data without having to provide any longitude/latitude or shape information. For example, I can open a data table in JMP that has two columns – the names (or abbreviations)
In my previous blog post, I talked about using a Web Map Service (WMS) to generate a background map. The WMS feature is more flexible than the static background maps provided as part of JMP. But it requires the user to find an appropriate WMS server and then determine specific
I started to work at JMP this past summer as a student intern. One of my first projects was to create a background map for the office temperatures study. As you probably know, JMP 9 can graph map shapes using built-in map files. JMP can also work from user-created shapes,
Previously, I wrote about the image-based background maps that are provided as part of the JMP install. These maps work well when you are viewing a larger area of the world, such as a country or even a state or province. But if you want to zoom in closer, these
In my previous blog post, I gave an overview of the different types of background maps you can add to a graph in JMP 9. Today, I will discuss two of the options for a background map: Simple Earth and Detailed Earth. Simple Earth and Detailed Earth are two of
