The signals map

How to read the pins, the colours, and the clusters, and how to filter by what you can see.

The map view puts every signal where it happened, with the queue floating over it.

Reading a pin

  • Colour is the category family: operational, labour, finance and law, structure and growth, environment and social, geopolitics, or unassigned.
  • Size is the priority. Critical pins are the largest and carry a ring, so severity reads before you look at anything else.
  • The symbol inside the pin is the event type.

The Legend in the lane along the bottom names every colour currently on screen.

Clusters

Pins close together collapse into a numbered cluster. Zoom in or select the cluster to list what is inside it.

Filtering by what you see

This area restricts results to the current view, so panning to a region and selecting it is a fast geographic filter. Where there are very many results, the map draws the first pins only and says so at the top; narrow the time window or the categories to see the rest.

Your locations on the map

The Sites control adds layers: your own sites, supplier sites, customer sites, and market sites. Company sites come from the relationship you set on each company.

With your own sites added, every signal shows its distance to the nearest one, and Near my sites filters to what falls inside a radius you defined.
