A multi-layer map is formed by combining multiple map layers to present the distribution of complex geographic data. This topic describes how to add data to a multi-layer map and configure the style.
Prerequisites
A data dashboard is created. For more information, see create a Visualization Screen task.

Chart field configuration
On the charts in the Widget Library section, drag Multi-layer Map to the canvas.
By default, a color layer and a flying line layer are generated in the map layer. On the Field Labels page, click Add Layer in the upper-right corner to add other maps.
NoteThe maximum number of layers is 5. The minimum number of layers is 1.
Only one block color layer is supported in one map.
After you add a layer, configure fields for each layer and select Dimension and Measure fields. If the current default color layer and flying line layer are generated, the configuration is as follows:
For more information about the Flying Route Layer field, see Flying Route Map.
For more information about how to configure the Block Color Layer field, see colored map.
For more information about how to configure the Bubble Layer field, see geo bubble chart.
You can also perform the following operations on the data:
Configure multiple field formats. For more information, see Configure multiple field formats.
Configure field filtering. For more information, see Filter data.
Configure automatic data refresh (③). For more information, see Scheduled data refresh.
Switch a dataset. For more information, see Switch a dataset.
Edit a dataset. For more information, see Edit a dataset.
Create a calculated field and a grouping dimension. For more information, see Create a calculated field and Create a grouping dimension.
