  1. Click on the + button on the bottom-right of the screen (for a GIS map, this provides extra options, as opposed to only creating a new chart).



  2. When the following popup appears, choose one of the two options to add a layer to your map:
    • New Map Layer - Existing Report Data: Use this option if you new layer will use data already in this report.
    • New Map Layer - Geographic Pack Data: Use this option if you want to use data from a Geographical pack in the new layer. Note that you can get ready-made geographical packs from Yellowfin's GitHub to add to your Yellowfin instance. 



  3. If you selected the Existing Report Data option, then your selection will create a new layer in the chart builder, with existing field data. Drag these fields to the chart components to create the chart layer, much like you would with any chart.

  4. Alternatively, if you selected a Geographic Pack, then the chart builder will display data from the selected Geopack. You can create your map layer by using this data.



  5. Once the map layer is created, you’ll be able to see its icon at the bottom of the chart builder, differentiating it from the main or primary map.
    Note: learn more about the GIS Settings option in the chart formatter here.
