sjkp / heatmap

The PowerBI Heatmap Visual enables users to draw a heatmap overlay from a X, Y coordinate set on to an existing image. The user specify the image, and provide a data set of X, Y coordinates and optionally an intensity for each data point. The radius and the bluriness of the heatmap bubbles can be customized as well as the max value for the intensity.

Feature Suggestion: Enable image to be plotted on heat map which represents a person #12

Hi Simon,

I have a cool idea and was wondering if you could implement it as you are expert in Custom visual creation. We could use this heat map of yours to track movement of a person on any floor map.

The markers should some how be tagged to an image and then we could see the motion by playing it as per timestamp values.

Look at the this image and imagine a persons face instead of red dot.

Example for image to be plotted: https://www.infogrades.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Celebrities-Living-in-New-York-City-Infographic.jpg

Let me know your thoughts on this.

Dear Prateek Raina,

interesting application. Do you already have implemented the changing dots per timestamp? How did you manage to use this heatmap in combination with a time referring change of dots?

Hello Ben,

I have used Play Axis slicer on the same page. When you play the slicer it gives the tracking effect which you saw in the gif.

Would you be taking up this feature request by any chance?

I'm not sure I understand, do you want the face picture so show up in an X,Y coordinate system like I'm using in the heatmap and their size is dependent on a value? If so, I guess I can make a fork that can do what you request, but I don't think it makes sense to add to the heatmap visuals.

Hi Simon,

Good to hear from you. Yes, you are right, I need the face picture to show up in X,Y coordinate system. The size of the picture can be same for all values. The idea is to track the movement of a person on a custom floor map. This idea when combined with Dynamic Axis slicer, will give a great outcome similar to Marauder's Map in Harry Potter :) It would be great if you create a separate visual for this.
