JavaScript Figure Reference: scattermap Traces
scattermap trace is an object with the key "type" equal to "scattermap" (i.e. {"type": "scattermap"}) and any of the keys listed below. The data visualized as scatter point, lines or marker symbols on a MapLibre GL geographic map is provided by longitude/latitude pairs in `lon` and `lat`.
- type
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: "scattermap" - name
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: stringSets the trace name. The trace name appears as the legend item and on hover.
- visible
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: enumerated , one of (true|false|"legendonly")
Default:trueDetermines whether or not this trace is visible. If "legendonly", the trace is not drawn, but can appear as a legend item (provided that the legend itself is visible).
- showlegend
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: boolean
Default:trueDetermines whether or not an item corresponding to this trace is shown in the legend.
- legend
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: subplotid
Default:legendSets the reference to a legend to show this trace in. References to these legends are "legend", "legend2", "legend3", etc. Settings for these legends are set in the layout, under `layout.legend`, `layout.legend2`, etc.
- legendrank
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: number
Default:1000Sets the legend rank for this trace. Items and groups with smaller ranks are presented on top/left side while with "reversed" `legend.traceorder` they are on bottom/right side. The default legendrank is 1000, so that you can use ranks less than 1000 to place certain items before all unranked items, and ranks greater than 1000 to go after all unranked items. When having unranked or equal rank items shapes would be displayed after traces i.e. according to their order in data and layout.

- text
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: string or array of strings
Default:""Sets text elements associated with each (lon,lat) pair If a single string, the same string appears over all the data points. If an array of string, the items are mapped in order to the this trace's (lon,lat) coordinates. If trace `hoverinfo` contains a "text" flag and "hovertext" is not set, these elements will be seen in the hover labels.

- texttemplate
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: string or array of strings
Default:""Template string used for rendering the information text that appears on points. Note that this will override `textinfo`. Variables are inserted using %{variable}, for example "y: %{y}". Numbers are formatted using d3-format's syntax %{variable:d3-format}, for example "Price: %{y:$.2f}". https://github.com/d3/d3-format/tree/v1.4.5#d3-format for details on the formatting syntax. Dates are formatted using d3-time-format's syntax %{variable|d3-time-format}, for example "Day: %{2019-01-01|%A}". https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format/tree/v2.2.3#locale_format for details on the date formatting syntax. Variables that can't be found will be replaced with the specifier. For example, a template of "data: %{x}, %{y}" will result in a value of "data: 1, %{y}" if x is 1 and y is missing. Variables with an undefined value will be replaced with the fallback value. All attributes that can be specified per-point (the ones that are `arrayOk: true`) are available. Finally, the template string has access to variables `lat`, `lon` and `text`.
- texttemplatefallback
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: number or categorical coordinate string
Default:-Fallback string that's displayed when a variable referenced in a template is missing. If the boolean value 'false' is passed in, the specifier with the missing variable will be displayed.
- hovertext
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: string or array of strings
Default:""Sets hover text elements associated with each (lon,lat) pair If a single string, the same string appears over all the data points. If an array of string, the items are mapped in order to the this trace's (lon,lat) coordinates. To be seen, trace `hoverinfo` must contain a "text" flag.
- hoverinfo
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: flaglist string. Any combination of"lon","lat","text","name"joined with a"+"OR"all"or"none"or"skip".
Examples:"lon","lat","lon+lat","lon+lat+text","all"
Default:"all"Determines what trace information appears on hover. If `none` or `skip` are set, no information is displayed upon hovering. But, if `none` is set, click and hover events are still fired.
- hovertemplate
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: string or array of strings
Default:""Template string used for rendering the information that appear on hover box. Note that this will override `hoverinfo`. Variables are inserted using %{variable}, for example "y: %{y}" as well as %{xother}, {%_xother}, {%_xother_}, {%xother_}. When showing info for several points, "xother" will be added to those with different x positions from the first point. An underscore before or after "(x|y)other" will add a space on that side, only when this field is shown. Numbers are formatted using d3-format's syntax %{variable:d3-format}, for example "Price: %{y:$.2f}". https://github.com/d3/d3-format/tree/v1.4.5#d3-format for details on the formatting syntax. Dates are formatted using d3-time-format's syntax %{variable|d3-time-format}, for example "Day: %{2019-01-01|%A}". https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format/tree/v2.2.3#locale_format for details on the date formatting syntax. Variables that can't be found will be replaced with the specifier. For example, a template of "data: %{x}, %{y}" will result in a value of "data: 1, %{y}" if x is 1 and y is missing. Variables with an undefined value will be replaced with the fallback value. The variables available in `hovertemplate` are the ones emitted as event data described at this link https://plotly.com/javascript/plotlyjs-events/#event-data. Additionally, all attributes that can be specified per-point (the ones that are `arrayOk: true`) are available. Anything contained in tag `<extra>` is displayed in the secondary box, for example `<extra>%{fullData.name}</extra>`. To hide the secondary box completely, use an empty tag `<extra></extra>`.
- hovertemplatefallback
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: number or categorical coordinate string
Default:-Fallback string that's displayed when a variable referenced in a template is missing. If the boolean value 'false' is passed in, the specifier with the missing variable will be displayed.
- meta
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: number or categorical coordinate stringAssigns extra meta information associated with this trace that can be used in various text attributes. Attributes such as trace `name`, graph, axis and colorbar `title.text`, annotation `text` `rangeselector`, `updatemenues` and `sliders` `label` text all support `meta`. To access the trace `meta` values in an attribute in the same trace, simply use `%{meta[i]}` where `i` is the index or key of the `meta` item in question. To access trace `meta` in layout attributes, use `%{data[n[.meta[i]}` where `i` is the index or key of the `meta` and `n` is the trace index.
- customdata
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: data arrayAssigns extra data each datum. This may be useful when listening to hover, click and selection events. Note that, "scatter" traces also appends customdata items in the markers DOM elements
- subplot
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: subplotid
Default:mapSets a reference between this trace's data coordinates and a map subplot. If "map" (the default value), the data refer to `layout.map`. If "map2", the data refer to `layout.map2`, and so on.
- marker
Parent:data[type=scattermap]
Type: object containing one or more of the keys listed below.- allowoverlap
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker
Type: booleanFlag to draw all symbols, even if they overlap.
- angle
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker
Type: number or array of numbers
Default:"auto"Sets the marker orientation from true North, in degrees clockwise. When using the "auto" default, no rotation would be applied in perspective views which is different from using a zero angle.
- autocolorscale
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker
Type: boolean
Default:trueDetermines whether the colorscale is a default palette (`autocolorscale: true`) or the palette determined by `marker.colorscale`. Has an effect only if in `marker.color` is set to a numerical array. In case `colorscale` is unspecified or `autocolorscale` is true, the default palette will be chosen according to whether numbers in the `color` array are all positive, all negative or mixed.
- cauto
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker
Type: boolean
Default:trueDetermines whether or not the color domain is computed with respect to the input data (here in `marker.color`) or the bounds set in `marker.cmin` and `marker.cmax` Has an effect only if in `marker.color` is set to a numerical array. Defaults to `false` when `marker.cmin` and `marker.cmax` are set by the user.
- cmax
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker
Type: numberSets the upper bound of the color domain. Has an effect only if in `marker.color` is set to a numerical array. Value should have the same units as in `marker.color` and if set, `marker.cmin` must be set as well.
- cmid
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker
Type: numberSets the mid-point of the color domain by scaling `marker.cmin` and/or `marker.cmax` to be equidistant to this point. Has an effect only if in `marker.color` is set to a numerical array. Value should have the same units as in `marker.color`. Has no effect when `marker.cauto` is `false`.
- cmin
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker
Type: numberSets the lower bound of the color domain. Has an effect only if in `marker.color` is set to a numerical array. Value should have the same units as in `marker.color` and if set, `marker.cmax` must be set as well.
- color
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker
Type: color or array of colorsSets the marker color. It accepts either a specific color or an array of numbers that are mapped to the colorscale relative to the max and min values of the array or relative to `marker.cmin` and `marker.cmax` if set.
- coloraxis
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker
Type: subplotidSets a reference to a shared color axis. References to these shared color axes are "coloraxis", "coloraxis2", "coloraxis3", etc. Settings for these shared color axes are set in the layout, under `layout.coloraxis`, `layout.coloraxis2`, etc. Note that multiple color scales can be linked to the same color axis.
- colorbar
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker
Type: object containing one or more of the keys listed below.- bgcolor
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: color
Default:"rgba(0,0,0,0)"Sets the color of padded area.
- bordercolor
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: color
Default:"#444"Sets the axis line color.
- borderwidth
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: number greater than or equal to 0
Default:0Sets the width (in px) or the border enclosing this color bar.
- dtick
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: number or categorical coordinate stringSets the step in-between ticks on this axis. Use with `tick0`. Must be a positive number, or special strings available to "log" and "date" axes. If the axis `type` is "log", then ticks are set every 10^(n"dtick) where n is the tick number. For example, to set a tick mark at 1, 10, 100, 1000, ... set dtick to 1. To set tick marks at 1, 100, 10000, ... set dtick to 2. To set tick marks at 1, 5, 25, 125, 625, 3125, ... set dtick to log_10(5), or 0.69897000433. "log" has several special values; "L<f>", where `f` is a positive number, gives ticks linearly spaced in value (but not position). For example `tick0` = 0.1, `dtick` = "L0.5" will put ticks at 0.1, 0.6, 1.1, 1.6 etc. To show powers of 10 plus small digits between, use "D1" (all digits) or "D2" (only 2 and 5). `tick0` is ignored for "D1" and "D2". If the axis `type` is "date", then you must convert the time to milliseconds. For example, to set the interval between ticks to one day, set `dtick` to 86400000.0. "date" also has special values "M<n>" gives ticks spaced by a number of months. `n` must be a positive integer. To set ticks on the 15th of every third month, set `tick0` to "2000-01-15" and `dtick` to "M3". To set ticks every 4 years, set `dtick` to "M48"
- exponentformat
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: enumerated , one of ("none"|"e"|"E"|"power"|"SI"|"B"|"SI extended")
Default:"B"Determines a formatting rule for the tick exponents. For example, consider the number 1,000,000,000. If "none", it appears as 1,000,000,000. If "e", 1e+9. If "E", 1E+9. If "power", 1x10^9 (with 9 in a super script). If "SI", 1G. If "B", 1B. "SI" uses prefixes from "femto" f (10^-15) to "tera" T (10^12). "SI extended" covers instead the full SI range from "quecto" q (10^-30) to "quetta" Q (10^30). If "SI" or "SI extended" is used and the exponent is beyond the above ranges, the formatting rule will automatically be switched to the power notation.
- labelalias
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: number or categorical coordinate stringReplacement text for specific tick or hover labels. For example using {US: 'USA', CA: 'Canada'} changes US to USA and CA to Canada. The labels we would have shown must match the keys exactly, after adding any tickprefix or ticksuffix. For negative numbers the minus sign symbol used (U+2212) is wider than the regular ascii dash. That means you need to use −1 instead of -1. labelalias can be used with any axis type, and both keys (if needed) and values (if desired) can include html-like tags or MathJax.
- len
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: number greater than or equal to 0
Default:1Sets the length of the color bar This measure excludes the padding of both ends. That is, the color bar length is this length minus the padding on both ends.
- lenmode
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: enumerated , one of ("fraction"|"pixels")
Default:"fraction"Determines whether this color bar's length (i.e. the measure in the color variation direction) is set in units of plot "fraction" or in "pixels. Use `len` to set the value.
- minexponent
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: number greater than or equal to 0
Default:3Hide SI prefix for 10^n if |n| is below this number. This only has an effect when `tickformat` is "SI" or "B".
- nticks
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: integer greater than or equal to 0
Default:0Specifies the maximum number of ticks for the particular axis. The actual number of ticks will be chosen automatically to be less than or equal to `nticks`. Has an effect only if `tickmode` is set to "auto".
- orientation
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: enumerated , one of ("h"|"v")
Default:"v"Sets the orientation of the colorbar.
- outlinecolor
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: color
Default:"#444"Sets the axis line color.
- outlinewidth
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: number greater than or equal to 0
Default:1Sets the width (in px) of the axis line.
- separatethousands
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: booleanIf "true", even 4-digit integers are separated
- showexponent
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: enumerated , one of ("all"|"first"|"last"|"none")
Default:"all"If "all", all exponents are shown besides their significands. If "first", only the exponent of the first tick is shown. If "last", only the exponent of the last tick is shown. If "none", no exponents appear.
- showticklabels
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: boolean
Default:trueDetermines whether or not the tick labels are drawn.
- showtickprefix
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: enumerated , one of ("all"|"first"|"last"|"none")
Default:"all"If "all", all tick labels are displayed with a prefix. If "first", only the first tick is displayed with a prefix. If "last", only the last tick is displayed with a suffix. If "none", tick prefixes are hidden.
- showticksuffix
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: enumerated , one of ("all"|"first"|"last"|"none")
Default:"all"Same as `showtickprefix` but for tick suffixes.
- thickness
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: number greater than or equal to 0
Default:30Sets the thickness of the color bar This measure excludes the size of the padding, ticks and labels.
- thicknessmode
Parent:data[type=scattermap].marker.colorbar
Type: enumerated , one of ("fraction"|"pixels")
Default:"pixels"Determines whether this color bar's thickness (i.e. the measure in the constant color direction) is set in units of plot "fraction" or in "pixels". Use `thickness` to set the value.
