What type of maps can be created using the geom command?

Choropleth maps are a specific type of thematic map that uses color variations to represent data values for different areas or regions, typically defined by administrative boundaries or geographical units. In the context of the geom command in Splunk, this type of map is particularly useful for visualizing geographic data, as it allows users to see patterns and distributions over specific areas, making it easier to analyze spatial relationships and trends in the data.

The geom command facilitates the creation of several types of visualizations, but when focusing on geographic representations, choropleth maps stand out due to their effectiveness in illustrating categorical or quantitative data across different regions. By employing this command with relevant geographic data, users can effectively convey information about demographics, resource distribution, or any other analytical quantity that varies by geography.

In contrast, other types of maps such as radial gauges, standard maps, and heat maps serve different purposes. Radial gauges are typically used to display a single value in a compact format, while standard maps might not provide the same level of data categorization and visualization as choropleth maps. Heat maps, while also useful in illustrating density or intensity of data points, operate differently by showing concentrations rather than specific values assigned to distinct geographical areas. Hence, the focus on
