For dashboards and data visualisation, our customers are using maps (google, ESRI, OpenStreetMap, etc) as data visualisation tools. For example, if you have a store, and customer dimension, you could have Latitude-longitude attributes, based on which you can put markers, or bubbles onto the map. This is very useful if you would like to have a geographical visualisation of the data, e.g. how stores are performing in a country, and so on. Jedox. does not have an out-of-the-box tool, we tried the widget but its a bit complicated for business users.
So the data source could be a table, where you have customers in the rows, with lat/lon attributes and the next 2 columns for bubble size/color.

Thank you for your great idea. While we cannot commit to a specific target version, we will consider adding it to our future internal backlog. If you can add further information about the context of this feature, please add it here so we can evaluate it more fully.
Full support for this idea! In our migration project to jedox platform we faced the same problem: old platform could visualize stores on a map (by x and y coordinates as two colums in the data - e.g. WGS 84 format), now we have to find a workaround to save this feature. It would be great to have this feature direct in a jedox visual (There are some great open source map libraries (like leaflet) out there that could may be easily integrated).
