Add Geometry Columns to a Workbook

You can start visualizing shapes from a geometry column by using a dataset that holds geometry data.

A geometry column can be consumed from a dataset created based on a SDO.Geometry data type from an Oracle database or a Well-Known Text (WKT) format from a CSV file.

1. On your home page, click Create, and then click Workbook.
2. In the Add Data dialog, click a dataset with a geometry column , then click Add to Workbook.

3. Click Save.
   After you add the dataset to your workbook, you simply drag and drop the geometry column, for example WKT, onto the Visualize canvas to start to create visualizations.
