Many areas of the US are experiencing record low unemployment. This is great at the national level, and also great at a personal level (for example, I now have fewer unemployed friends asking to borrow money!) But just how low is the US unemployment rate, and how does it compare
Tool tip and drill-down functionality is commonly used to explore plot data in a graph, particularly on the web. Occasionally, you might even have the need to add this drill-down functionality to your titles or footnotes, possibly to reference more details or source information. The TITLE and FOOTNOTE statements in
Sometimes it is difficult to know what parameters to use when projecting map data onto Esri or OpenStreetMaps in PROC SGMAP. The shapefile .PRJ file contains everything you need to set these parameters in PROC GPROJECT. In a previous blog, you saw how to lookup projections at a web site,
Recently, I was asked about a formatting situation where the DOLLAR8.2 format was specified on the data column, but the cents on the axis showed showed just one digit instead of the two requested by the format. data example; input time money; datalines; 1 1 2 1.5 3 2 4
The ODS Graphics software, first released with SAS 9.2, supported creating graphs directly from statistical procedures. Prior to this, very few statistical procedures created graphs on their own, and in most cases creating graphs was a post process or creating the graphs from the saved data using SAS/GRAPH procedures. With
As mentioned in other PROC SGMAP blogs, several SAS/GRAPH procedures have been moved to 9.4M6 Base SAS to be used with PROC SGMAP. You can use these to create PROC SGMAP output even when using the free SAS University edition. In this blog you will use the: IMPORT procedure for
