React Binding CSV Files with Geographic Locations

    With the Ignite UI for React map component, you can plot geographic data loaded from various file types. For example, you can load geographic locations from a comma separated values (CSV) file.

    React Binding CSV Files with Geographic Locations Example

    Data Example

    Here is an example of data from CSV file:

    City,Lat,Lon,State,Code,County,Density,Population
    New York,40.7856,-74.0093,New Jersey,NJ,Hudson,21057,54227
    Dundee,42.5236,-76.9775,New York,NY,Yates,579,1650
    

    Code Snippet

    The following code loads and binds IgrGeographicHighDensityScatterSeries in the map component to an array of objects created from loaded CSV file with geographic locations.

    import { IgrGeographicHighDensityScatterSeries } from 'igniteui-react-maps';
    // ...
    
    public componentDidMount() {
        // fetching CSV data with geographic locations from public folder
        fetch(url + "/Data/UsaCities.csv")
            .then((response) => response.text())
            .then(data => this.onDataLoaded(data));
    }
    
    public onDataLoaded(csvData: string) {
        const csvLines = csvData.split("\n");
    
        // parsing CSV data and creating geographic locations
        const geoLocations: any[] = [];
        for (let i = 1; i < csvLines.length; i++) {
            const columns = csvLines[i].split(",");
            // using CSV columns: City,Lat,Lon,State,Code,County,Density,Population
            const location = {
                name:  columns[0],
                latitude:  Number(columns[1]),
                longitude: Number(columns[2]),
                state: columns[3],
                code: columns[4],
                county: columns[5],
                density: Number(columns[6]),
                population: Number(columns[7])
            };
            geoLocations.push(location);
        }
    
        // creating HD series with loaded data
        const geoSeries = new IgrGeographicHighDensityScatterSeries( { name: "hdSeries" });
        geoSeries.dataSource = geoLocations;
        geoSeries.latitudeMemberPath  = "latitude";
        geoSeries.longitudeMemberPath = "longitude";
        geoSeries.heatMaximumColor = "Red";
        geoSeries.heatMinimumColor = "Black";
        geoSeries.heatMinimum = 0;
        geoSeries.heatMaximum = 5;
        geoSeries.pointExtent = 1;
        geoSeries.mouseOverEnabled = true;
        // adding symbol series to the geographic amp
        this.geoMap.series.add(geoSeries);
    }
