In the world of IoT, geospatial data plays a crucial role in providing context to the data generated by devices. Whether it’s tracking the location of a fleet of vehicles or monitoring the status of remote assets, map-based widgets can provide an intuitive visual way to understand and interact with this data. In this article, we will explore three map-based widgets for Cumulocity IoT.

Displays a map with position markers for devices with c8y_Position fragments. The user can create multiple layers using different queries:
- fragment and value layer, e.g. show all devices with type = c8y_MQTTDevice
- inventory query layer, e.g. show all devices with critical alarm count greater 0 and having custom fragment xyz
- alarm query layer, show all devices for that at least one alarm exists matching the alarm query you create
- event query layer, show all devices for that at least one event exists matching the event query you create
The map widget is designed to scale well also with higher count of devices. Position updates and changes regarding the layers are polled using bulk requests Markers can be configured…
The Layered Map Widget Plugin supports the creation of multiple layers using different queries. These layers can be based on fragment and value layers, inventory query layers, alarm query layers, and event query layers. The widget is designed to scale well with a higher count of devices, with position updates and changes regarding the layers polled using bulk requests.
Markers can be configured to show different icons, and if alarms exist, different colors will be shown depending on the highest alarm severity. Alarm details can be found in the popover of the device, which is built to be easily extended or replaced in code.
