Add data

  1. Prepare your data by adding a new column to your dataset that will calculate the thickness of the arrows based on the highest value you want to plot in your data. So if the largest data value is 100 and it should represent the thickest arrow on your map. Once you start adding the arrows later you will see what looks good and that will help you choose an arrow width that looks good. You can start with a value of 16px for world scale maps and maybe 32px for zoomed in maps.
