Time series

Time series are measured values that change over time. You can configure time series values in the Ontology as time series properties. The map contains features to help you view and analyze time series data that is associated with geospatial objects.

Explore related time series

Select an object on your map that has associated time series data. You can see any related time series in the Series tab of the selection panel. The value shown next to a series reflects the value of the series at the current selected time.

Select the … that appears when hovering over a series row to open a menu that contains additional actions related to the specifically-selected time series:

• Pin series: Pinning a time series has two effects:
  • The pinned time series will appear at the top of the series list.
  • The pinned time series will appear in labels displayed on the map. Read more about labels in the overview for visualizing objects.
• Open in series view: When you add a time series to the series view, a visualization of the series over time will appear at the bottom of the map. You can use the series view to move through time by clicking on the point in time you wish to view, or scroll the timeframe that is visualized by dragging the timeline at the bottom of the series panel.

You can also open time series in the series view by right-clicking on an object and selecting a series the Open series menu:

Use time series for styling

When objects on your map have associated time series data, you can color the objects by an associated time series. Use this to make your map responsive to the current time selection and help you understand how your data is changing over time. Read more about using time series for value-based styling.
