Let\u2019s run infographics<\/a> in Business Analyst Web App. There are two infographic templates specifically designed for the Europe (Beta) data source: Population and S<\/strong>pending Summary (Standard)<\/strong> and Europe Summary Report (Tabular)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

We can use the earlier example of a color-coded map visualizing purchasing power. Click on a few countries to add them as sites to the analysis. We\u2019ll use France and Germany for our infographic comparison. Right-click France <\/strong>and click Infographics <\/strong>on the site\u2019s pop-up menu<\/a>.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":2597922,"id":2597922,"title":"2024-11-21_13-36-55","filename":"2024-11-21_13-36-55.png","filesize":52650,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2024-11-21_13-36-55.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/bus-analyst\/announcements\/europe-beta-data-in-business-analyst\/2024-11-21_13-36-55","alt":"Run infographics.","author":"321952","description":"","caption":"","name":"2024-11-21_13-36-55","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":2559512,"date":"2024-11-21 19:41:26","modified":"2024-11-21 19:41:38","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/png","type":"image","subtype":"png","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":360,"height":348,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2024-11-21_13-36-55-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2024-11-21_13-36-55.png","medium-width":270,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2024-11-21_13-36-55.png","medium_large-width":360,"medium_large-height":348,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2024-11-21_13-36-55.png","large-width":360,"large-height":348,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2024-11-21_13-36-55.png","1536x1536-width":360,"1536x1536-height":348,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2024-11-21_13-36-55.png","2048x2048-width":360,"2048x2048-height":348,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2024-11-21_13-36-55.png","card_image-width":360,"card_image-height":348,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2024-11-21_13-36-55.png","wide_image-width":360,"wide_image-height":348}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

To make these Baltic hexagons three-dimensional on the map, we\u2019ll use the Feature To 3D By Attribute<\/a> tool. This tool is a natural fit, since you already have an attribute in this layer (2024 Population) that the three-dimensionality can render in the height of the hexagons.<\/p>\n

In the Geoprocessing <\/strong>pane, search and open the Feature to 3D By Attribute<\/strong> tool. Choose the Resolution 6 hexagons as the input layer, name the output Resolution6_hexagons<\/u>, and for the height field pick 2024 Total Population<\/strong>.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":2931911,"id":2931911,"title":"Snag_60580acf","filename":"Snag_60580acf.png","filesize":40496,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Snag_60580acf.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/bus-analyst\/announcements\/europe-beta-data-in-business-analyst\/snag_60580acf","alt":"Parameters for 3D features","author":"78361","description":"","caption":"","name":"snag_60580acf","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":2559512,"date":"2025-08-17 20:45:03","modified":"2025-08-17 20:45:07","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/png","type":"image","subtype":"png","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":349,"height":364,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Snag_60580acf-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Snag_60580acf.png","medium-width":250,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Snag_60580acf.png","medium_large-width":349,"medium_large-height":364,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Snag_60580acf.png","large-width":349,"large-height":364,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Snag_60580acf.png","1536x1536-width":349,"1536x1536-height":364,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Snag_60580acf.png","2048x2048-width":349,"2048x2048-height":364,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Snag_60580acf.png","card_image-width":349,"card_image-height":364,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Snag_60580acf.png","wide_image-width":349,"wide_image-height":364}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Cross-border analysis can be used in any ArcGIS Business Analyst Web App or Pro workflow with the Europe (Beta) data source. In this blog article, we explored a color-coded map and infographics in Business Analyst Web App and color-coded layers with 3D hexagons in Business Analyst Pro. Both examples analyze populations across countries in Europe and enrich maps with data for demographic comparisons.<\/p>\n

How will you use the Europe (Beta) data source? We welcome your feedback!
