Datasets describe the data model of a project. Each dataset represents a database table. They also define the constraints and links between all other datasets in a project.
There are three types of datasets:
dwh(
) type is a data warehouse service dataset type, it references a table in a relational dwh database, which may contain various kinds of data (e.g. orders, customers, administrative units...)vt(
) type is a vector tile dataset type, it references a vector tile service, which serves vector tiles that are displayed over the base map (CleverMaps vector tiles are hosted on Mapbox)h3Grid(
) type is a H3 grid dataset, it represents a grid visualization, where the geometries are generated on the fly by the application (see Tutorial 8 for more info, and H3 grid spatial index by Uber)
Datasets of dwh type also have a subtype, which defines the type of data they contain. There are five of them:
basic() subtype is used to contain data which are not to be visualised on a map (e.g. orders, clients, or demography)geometryPolygon(
) subtype contains data which represent polygons on a map (e.g. administrative units, delivery zones)geometryPoint
) subtype contains data which represent specific points on a map (e.g. shops, postcodes, or POIs)geometryLine(
) subtype contains data which represent lines on a map (e.g. routes, pipelines)date(
) subtype is a special subtype not to be used in a regular way, it is used to describe datasets the can-dim-dates data dimension
Datasets also subject to various validation checks. Datasets with ref.subtype other than basic - geometryPolygon, geometryPoint, geometryLine and date must also contain properties.featureTitle key, which defines the format of visualisation of one row of the dataset (used in tooltips or the date picker). Datasets with geometry must have a link to a vt type dataset describing that geometry. More about these checks in the examples below.
Datasets are directly referencing other datasets via foreignKey property or geometry key. They are referenced by URL in marker selectors, as some datasets represent a group of points in the map. Dataset properties, declared in dataset.ref.properties are referenced by name in metrics, view filters and indicator drills. Reference integrity of the data model is also enforced. In order not to break this integrity, is not possible to delete a dataset, which is referenced in another dataset, either by foreignKey, or geometry.
Syntax
Example of a dwh dataset with basic subtype. This subtype typically indicates a dataset, which does not have a geographical information - so it is not possible to visualise it on the map.
This dataset describes baskets (i.e. orders) from the Retail Solution Demo project. Each basket represents a purchase made by a customer, either offline in one of the shops, or online in the e-shop. You can see that it contains various purchase properties like "Date", "Purchase value", "Delivery type", etc.

This dataset represents H3 grid visualization on resolution 8. It's very similar to vt dataset, apart from resolution you only need to define appropriate zoom. See Example to see how to link this dataset to a geometryPoint dwh dataset.

This dwh dataset represents locations of stores. Each store has a location (lat and lon properties), and is visualised by a marker. So, in this case the "subtype" is "geometryPoint".

This dataset represents dwh data of the districts of the United Kingdom. Districts have a geometry, so they can be visualised as polygons on the map. Thus, "subtype" is "geometryPolygon".
The dataset also contains information about its data sources. The source data for UK districts was provided by Office for National Statistics under the Open Government license. For more info, see the syntax below.

This dataset represents a gas pipeline network. The pipelines are visualised by lines, so "subtype" is "geometryLine". However, remember that the actual geometries are described by the pipelines_geojson vt dataset.

This is an example of the date subtype dataset. This subtype is almost exclusively used in the can-dim-dates dimension, used for date management and filtering in a project.
This subtype also enforces the presence of the featureTitle property. The property selected as a featureTitle defines what date will be show in the date picker, or the time series indicator drill block. This is useful in cases when you want to use the date names in different language. The can-dim-dates dimension currently offers either English (date_en) or Czech (date_cz).

This dataset has the displayOptions.valueOptions object set on some properties. These are the properties that are also used in a categories block in any linked indicator drill. This gives you the ability to use the qualitative visualization (more info in Tutorial 5: Drilling down on the data).
For example, the baskets.on_off_name property has two possible values: "Online" and "Offline". So the objects with prevailing "Online" value will become green, and objects with prevailing "Offline" will become red.

This is a simple dwh geometryPoint dataset which contains addresses with latitude and longitude. To visualize it using H3 grid, simply add some h3Grid datasets and specify them in the ref.h3Geometries array.
Notice the concat function in featureTitle. This function allows you to concat multiple properties and text to be displayed in the dataset's features tooltip and headers.
Key description
properties
These properties define the content of a tooltip shown on marker/area hover (example), and the details of a dataset (example).
The properties can be found on the common syntax level. The syntax example can be found in the "Example of a dwh dataset type with geometryPoint subtype" above.

Visual representation
The data model which the datasets describe, can be considered their visualization. It can be viewed in the application by clicking the Account button on the bottom left of a Project page, and selecting Data model. However, this functionality is available only to users with the Admin user role.
Example of a project's data model
This is the visualization of the data model from the Retail Solution Demo project.
Native datasets in this project are baskets, shops and clients. The other datasets were imported from different data dimensions. The datasets in orange were imported from the can-dim-dates dimension. Brown datasets are from a UK administrative units dimension. The dataset demography_postcode comes from a UK demography dimension. The h3Grid datasets are pink.
Detail of a dataset in the data model
If you click on any dataset a detail will be displayed.
The detail of a dwh dataset contains 3 blocks - Overview, Properties and Data load history. Please note that Data load history is diplayed only to administrators of a project. It's also possible to see the Data preview, where you can check if your data have loaded properly, sort or filter by the value of any column.
The detail of a vt dataset contains only the Overview block. It is possible click the link to Mapbox to see a geometry preview.

Dataset data preview
Data preview with applied filters to some shop_id, month and on_off_name dataset properties.
Tooltip shown on hover
For geometryPoint and geometryPolygon datasets, a tooltip is shown on hover. The content is defined in dataset.properties.
"My Store: Grand Central" is the featureTitle.
"Virgin Trains, 6b 7b, Digbeth, B15" is the featureSubtitle.
Dataset details
The content of dataset details is defined in dataset.properties.featureAttributes. The details are shown on the dashboard, right under the indicator list.
Feature accuracy
Hovering or clicking down on a feature with properties.featureAccuracy specified.
