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.

Time series data in the series panel and selection panel.

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.

You can also add a time series explicitly to the series-panel by right-clicking an object and selecting Add series to series view. Additionally, you can select an object to render the Selection panel before navigating to the Series tab.

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.
