The float tags are required here to keep the subheadings on the same page in the website. And, since link tags are global, we need to give them unique names to avoid cross-linking errors. These changes need to be backported to all 6.X releases.

== Region Maps
|
|
|
|
Region maps are thematic maps in which boundary vector shapes are colored using a gradient:
|
|
higher intensity colors indicate larger values, and lower intensity colors indicate smaller values.
|
|
These are also known as choropleth maps.

|
=== Configuration
|
|
|
|
To create a region map, you configure an inner join that joins the result of an Elasticsearch terms aggregation
|
|
and a reference vector file based on a shared key.

|
|
===== Layer Settings
|
|
- *Vector map*: select from a list of vector maps. This list includes the maps that are hosted by the © https://www.elastic.co/elastic-maps-service[Elastic Maps Service],
|
|
as well as your self-hosted layers that are configured in the *config/kibana.yml* file. To learn more about how to configure Kibana
|
|
to make self-hosted layers available, see the <<regionmap-settings,regionmap settings>> documentation.
|
|
- *Join field*: this is the property from the selected vector map that will be used to join on the terms in your terms-aggregation.
|
|
When terms cannot be joined to any of the shapes in the vector layer because there is no exact match in the vector layer, Kibana will display a warning.
|
|
To turn of these warnings, go to *Management/Kibana/Advanced Settings* and set `visualization:regionmap:showWarnings` to `false`.
