Is there any relationship between latitudes longitudes and fusionmap markers?

Hi,

    I want to draw natural gas pipelines along the U.S map. But I have the data for the pipelines in latitudes and longitudes. So is there any relationship between x/y co-ordinates and latitudes and longitudes?

Hi Pravardhan,

 

FusionMaps XT shows data based on geographical entities and not on zip codes. It uses an internal co-ordinate system to plot points.

 

For example, the US map is divided into it's respective states. You can show data for each state by referring to it's ID (pre-defined in FusionMaps XT). You cannot directly use ZIP code to highlight particular cities or states.

 

Hope this helps.
