This same map should be later available to dynamically visualize the transactions associated with each ATM in a quantitative representation. In this article, you will learn how to plot atm/shop locations on map and embed it on your website.

There are limited GIS software and online tools where you can do this job. Most of them are limited to any single service, ie., either creating a map and hosting the map on a website, but IGISMap allows you to do both. IGISMap is a GIS based web platform providing multiple GIS applications that are most important in the field of geospatial analytics. The peculiarity of IGISMAP in the GIS Industry is its UI/UX which helps the user to perform effortless geospatial operations. GIS tools of IGISMAP allow you to Add Your Data, Create Your Data, Map Your Data, Style Your Data, Process Your Data, and Analyze Your Data, and additionally, it helps you to share your Data privately or publicly.

How to Plot ATM/shop locations on map

Create Point Data tool of IGISMap is a powerful GIS tool to plot point vector data to represent locations and point objects with single latitude and longitude values. Using Create Point Data tool, we can create an interactive map of ATM locations like the following.

Lets walk through each step of the Create Point Data tool to create a map like this and share with your team.

First, you need to log in to IGISMap from https://map.igismap.com/. If you haven’t signed up for IGISMap, click the Sign Up button to create an IGISMap account.

Start Plotting Points for the ATM Locations

First step is Add Points, where we can start plotting the ATM locations as points, in the form of pins. IGISMap provides you with three features for plotting points: Drop Points, Search Address, and Lat Lon Values.

Let’s select the Drop Points option and zoom to the location with the desired ATM Machine to plot a pin in that specific location on the map

Create Point Data - Add Points - Drop Points - plot the atm/shop location on map — Add Points – Drop Points

Search Address option opens a search address box, where you can enter an address and choose the right option from the dropdown list, then click the Plot button to plot a point on that location.

Lat Lon Values will open two boxes to enter latitude and longitude values of the location you want to plot, Plot Location button in this option will plot a pin at the location you have entered.

Also, a popup will open for entering attribute values in each attribute field for that atm location when a point is plotting. Click the Submit button to Submit the save the attribute entries. You can choose to delete the point you plotted by clicking the Delete Point button. You can disable the default opening of this popup using the toggle button.

But we can open this popup anytime while plotting, by simply clicking on an existing pin.

Note: If the Drop Points option is active for dropping pins, it should be unselected for selecting the plotted pins to open the attribute popup.

After plotting every desired ATM location for our data, click the Save and Publish button to publish your data in the map.

Review and Edit the Datatable

After the atm location is published, Show/Edit Datatable section will be open. Here you can edit the attribute values entered for each point location after clicking the button in the data table along each row in the data table. You can also choose to delete a point by clickingbutton.
