Geo maps & word clouds

Bring regional data onto the map and open-ended answers into a word cloud: grasp distributions across regions and the most frequent mentions at a glance — instead of reading lists line by line.

DataLion chart types showing a map and a word cloud among other charts

DataLion shows regional data as a geo map and visualises open-ended answers as a word cloud or open-text chart. The word cloud reflects the frequency of the mentioned terms — the more often a term appears, the larger it is shown. So you grasp distributions across regions and topics at a glance.

Geo maps for regional results

When your data has a location, show it as a geo map or map: awareness by state, usage by region, store data by site. The map turns tables into a spatial pattern instantly.

Like every DataLion chart, the map is interactive and filterable — one click on a filter updates the entire view.

Word clouds for open-ended answers

Open questions produce long lists. The word cloud condenses them into a picture: the more often a term is mentioned, the larger it appears. So you see the dominant themes without reading every answer one by one.

As an alternative, the open-text chart lists the same frequencies in a structured way.

  • Word cloud by mention frequency
  • Open-text chart as a structured alternative
  • Most frequent terms instantly visible
  • Filterable and segmentable like any chart

Visualise frequencies — not interpret them

Worth knowing: the word cloud reflects frequencies — it shows which terms were mentioned how often. DataLion does no AI-powered text analytics with sentiment or topic models; the visualization stays transparent and traceable.

For analysis, combine the word cloud with filters and segments — for instance to compare the most frequent mentions per audience.
