Boundary

This will create Heat Map on basis of selected region type like City, Postal Code, Country, State, Territory, etc.

No Boundary

This option does not consider the region type. It simply creates a Heat Map by the density of the measure selected without geographical boundaries.

Pie chart

Users can view the data in the form of Pie charts based on the heat of the attribute selected in the Measure and Filter. Pie charts help the users to analyze the data on the basis of comparative data shown by the Pie charts on the map.

Users can view the data in the form of column charts plotted on the basis of the heat of the attribute selected in the Measure and Filter. User can easily analyze the plotted data on the basis of the proportions shown by the respective columns.
