Hi Jennifer,
Welcome to the list, and thanks for the kudos.
- I really like the map visualisation possibility. I use lot of XML with coordinates and I was impressed that the tool could figure out them automatically. But it would be much more cooler to see it with a real map in background.
We thought about adding a feature to choose background images in the scatterplot. If you have two-dimensional latitude/longitude data, single data set could then be assigned visually to geographic locations.
I am not sure how that could look like for our map visualization? Could you give us more details? You may have discovered our set of map layouts in the GUI preferences, but probably they don’t match your specific requirements.
- I tried to export the XML to CSV but this seems not working.
As XML resources may be arbitrarily nested, there is no canonical way of exporting them to a tabular representation. The CSV module [1] gives you all flexibility to create tabular exports exactly as you want them to be, but you’ll need to write some XQuery code for that.
Hope this helps, Christian
